I agree. Item #1 should be the primary reason for carrying the LR #. Personally, it's been with my signature in every email I send. I've got lots of unknowing friends who ask me: What's with your signature?

Even if these few people use Linux just to keep up, it is the responsibility of the more serious ones to help them transform into real FOSS practitioners and advocates. Dong -- DONG B.
