Hi friends,

Check out this article:

"Imagine a society where the computer hacker isn't a figure of fear or 
derision, but something of a national hero (Linus Torvalds)"

"So it's possible that some unemployable, disaffected kid, glommed on to 
a PC for days, nights and months on end, supported by free education and 
decent social support, could come up with the next geek miracle for 
Britain. But as long as the Protestant work ethic dominates government 
thinking, targeting resources to shape a nation of dutiful workers 
instead of a nation of unruly players and creators, that's an unlikely 
scenario."

================================

Love,
Desi
