Yes, it's sad, isn't it? Those who know about Linux so often are too ignorant

Still, carry on with the evangelising I say.

I would like to disagree with your assertion that I am either ignorant
or stupid because I don't call it GNU/Linux.  Quite frankly, going round
calling people names because they don't happen to subscribe to using the
same name for something as you do is pretty ignorant.


I can cheerfully admit to being ignorant (of a lot of things, actually) but 
perhaps I was expecting too much from the list readership and/or being silly in 
not labelling my previous post "sarcasm" in capitals, so that my real intention 
was b***** obvious to everyone.

I shall do so in future.
