No! I have as much right to discuss this here as anyone else and I won't step aside for anyone. The following is crap and I didn't post it. "> But then Bill Gates will try to buy Sweden. Nah, Microsoft will just announce they have a Scandinavian country 'under development', there by causing people to cease considering current Scandinavian countries as viable. > > " When it turns out that their low-budget development of the country of Luxembourg isn't really technically "Scandinavian", they will simply redefine the term "Scandinavian". I think you make an excellent case. Tovalds or Mark Shuttleworth would make excellent choices for a Nobel laureate, IMO. Their contributions to humanity will endure long after most of today's major crises and concerns have crumbled into dust. -- Terry Sorry Terry, but you are wrong. Giving Linus a nobel peace prize, an atheist, would make a mockery of the award. And oh, why is Terry allowed to be off topic but I'm not??? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
