But the reality is that Uriel and colleagues are looking for a
platform for fame and fortune.
I think you're being gratuitously cruel.
OTOH I _do_ think that some people around here
are uncertain enough about their own opinions that
they subconsciously believe that approbation == excellence
and thus waste effort trying to convince others
that plan9 is Really Good when they are
really trying to convince themselves.
I, OTOH suffer from no such problem:
I _know_ I'm right*.
If anything, I suffer from the opposite delusion:
I own a MacBook (unpopular) but not an iPod (popular)
and I am deeply distrustful of popularity
as a measure of anything other than popularity.
Sadly, Plan 9 is not "American Idol"
That's right: we're not all tone-deaf braindead egomaniacs.
