Welcome aboard, Nicholas! Sounds like you will make a fine addition to the motley crew of geeks here. I've been an on-again, off-again follower of St. IGNUtius for a few years now. :)
I'm interested in hearing more about your experience with the FSF. I think that it would benefit the members at large, especially the newer members, to learn more about the FSF and how great an influence it was on the free-software | open-source software | Linux communities.
