Jesus, I hosted the Hot Sauce eating contest at the last RedHat Expo in
2000 with Mad Dog Hall and a pile of other Linux notables. I started in
1978 with a garage built Apple ][ that I blew 2 grand on. I've started 4
computer user groups around the US by 1990 and maintained a vintage
collection of almost every cp/m machine ever built, in Helena Montana. I
opened a Fidonet 8 line BBS for free in 1993, worked for RedHat
1999-2000 after 26 years in the chemical industry, and I'm 58 years old.
Check out my Linux User number, clueless.

Compared to most on this list, you are. :) Enjoy being young. I'll bet
that within another five years, you'll be ranting at top posters too!
For the very same reasons given in responses. <grins> Tim will hold the
money until then. Now, to whomever maintains the subscription pages,
please put the "List Rules" link back. Otherwise, we have anarchy. Ric
