Then this place would lose it's cachet, nothing but linux stuff?
<shudders> it's almost like a neighborhood pub without the booze,
answering questions sure, but getting snippets of everyone's life just
like the old Caldera List. Tell the guy with the white hat in Panama to
include BBQ recipes in the SxS release. Might toss in a few Martini
hints there, Tony. 

Since Panama happens to be a foreign country why not put all the mp3 and
video codexes in there, making it do what you want it to do, politics be
damned. Make sure lynx is there so the old crusties can hammer command
line around through the html recipe pages. I'll pay $20 now... upped
another five spot. Make Linux fun and they will come. Ric
