to a LUG. I will admit that this particular LUG was populated by some serious dyed in the wool longhair-ed hippie types complete with oddball PhD's in dead languages. Having had a haircut that month it was apparently impossible that I actually already used Linux so I was
Us long haired Linux using hippies take offense to that. :P
I only take offense when people automatically assume that us pierced and tattooed punk motorcycle grease under our fingers types can't be geeks too. :D
To be honest it was a really strange LUG compared to others I've attended. Out of 20-25 people only 2 were actually admins of any sort and a lot of the information being tossed around was dated or needed a number of caveats mentioned with it. While people seemed reasonably knowledgeable about Linux very few seemed to have actual experience doing what they were talking about.
I also assumed it was going to be more like my 2621 group, which is 2600 except it's held at a bar to keep the script kiddies out. That group is mostly security or admin people with hobbyists being the minority.
