Weight is subjective; we weigh difference amounts when we go from
place to place, not just for the varying foods we eat there...
(below sea level vs mtns vs moon)
Pounds are often interchanged betwixt wieght and mass,
whereas I cannot recall seeing metric mass used for weight(?)

But hey, let's keep it to linux, eh?  This is fun stuff for a
community chatter board, and I am sad that those things never
last -- maybe we could have a second list for 'linux' ETC stuff?

REAL Q: Has _anyone_ gotten a new (homemade) kernel to boot
on the standard Mandrake 7.2 install?

cheers
