I feel like their been quite a few "tech religious wars" that were more about people/personalities than technology. I remember reading article this past year about some well known distro being taken over by the more "politically correct" types.

I hear far worse on the nightly news by the supposed "Leader of the Free World" that stuff like this is just more incoherent babbling from another raving sociopathic troglodyte. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
