Hey! Did you see what Austin G. Swinney wrote on Jun 3 ?

"AAARRRGGHHH" was my first response when I read this! Linux is
nothing like dildows 95, you _don't_ need to reboot every time you make a
change.
In the case of changing the .bash you have a couple of options...
1 - logout and then login again
or an even better way...
2 - type "source .bash" (without the "") that will re-read the file
