| His name is Ken Starks and many only know him as "helios". Ken has a popular 
| blog and a cause he has given much for. As a Linux advocate, Ken has not only 
| spread the word across the nation and the world about Linux, he has taken on 
| the task of giving poor kids computers. He calls it by the corny name of 
| Komputers4Kids but it doesn't matter how corny the name sounds, it is what he 
| does that makes the difference. Ken has made a difference in the lives of 
| over a hundred kids in the past year.

For Those Searching On Christmas...

,----[ Quote ]
| Having found a community that will actually work with us here at Lobby4Linux 
| and FixedbyLinux.com, I naturally found myself wandering over to 
| mepislovers.org to inquire about maybe finding a "fix" for the missing 
| Konqueror. I placed the .deb file there as well.

Richard Stallman - The Santa of Software

,----[ Quote ]
| Stallman has not only devoted much of his time and energy to this cause, he 
| has given his money, too. In 1990, he won a McArthur Foundation fellowship, 
| worth somewhere in the neighbourhood of $230,000, divided into quarterly 
| installments over five years. "That was a lot more money than I need to live 
| on, and more income than I had ever had before. Rather than spending it, I 
| decided to invest most of it in mutual funds so that I can live on it for the 
| rest of my life while working on free software or another worthy cause."
