Zeal is only "religious" in the origin of the word -- from the men who
defended the Temple of Jerusalem against attacks in 70 A.D.
For all the press about Linux advocacy, the real scary people are the
brainwashed Microsoft jihadi who have been engaged in their
destructive war of expansionism for the last two decades.
Clearly, their technology is inferior and overpriced on every front,
yet their "plants" in the press continue to pump them up year after
year.
