It won't fit. *LOL* Over lunch, by the way, I thought of another Linux
analogy. It wasn't anything like your creative toaster and bread analogy. I
just reached the conclusion that Linux is like the various derivatives of
football and rugby. You can take an Aussie rugby player and have him play by
some Irish rules. It's very much like dancing in the realms of Linux. Each
gets his way. Diversity needs to prevail (and yes, I'm getting bored of
these tanned, boob-jobbed, blondes in pr0n).

Best wishes,

Roy
