Yes, but as a an ambassador marketing Fedora Core isn't about coaxing 
one to
believe something other than what they already do, but to prove what 
they believe
whether it be unstability or what-not to not actually be _fact_.

Anyhow. I just got back from a doctors office and he has never heard of 
Fedora Core
or Redhat, but I briefly explained it to him and he seemed to 
acknowledge the _facts_.

Bye now, have a great day!
