Thanks for your testing! No one has the time to test everything and the
more people helping the better. I incorrectly assumed you came in late and
were complaining about things not working.

I'm an American who was actually alive (though in grade school) when it was
a popular phrase and I know what it means in that context. That is why I

a different meaning. (i.e. There is enough pain with using Fedora that you
really need to love something about it to justify putting up with it.)
