A sad indictment of some of the behaviour we've all suffered
through lately.
How dare someone flame a newbie for asking a question? I suppose
such flamers were born with the Linux knowledge they have and never
had to ask an innocent question.
Personally speaking, I spend more time on SLUG deleting useless
irrelevant posts than reading the list.
I'm sure a lot of us who are deeply involved in Linux, open systems,
etc in the workplace and for research have little time for lists like
the ilk of what this one has become.
Sad, isn't it.

I bid Jason "so long and thanks for all the fish", and sit here
contemplating what my next move will be.
