   I  installed  Linux on one of my systems the other day, so I could use
   it  as  a  teaching  vehicle  for my class on system log analysis. But
   first I had to Email a bunch of my friends and ask them, "what version
   of  Linux  should I use? Red Hat? Debian? Gentoo? Mandrake? Slackware?
   Do  you think I could get away with OpenBSD or FreeBSD?" The responses
   I  got indicated that none of my friends use the same thing but that I
   could  be  sure  that if I used Flavor X some adherent of Flavor Y was
   going  to bust my chops about it, and that someone was sure to show up
   with flavor Z and have trouble making things work.

...Love is the ultimate outlaw.  It just won't adhere to rules.
The most any of us can do is sign on as it's accomplice.  Instead
of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet.
That would mean that security is out of the question.  The words
"make" and "stay" become inappropriate.  My love for you has no
strings attached.  I love you for free...
