| When the absolutely tireless and selfless Lynn Bender (you will see that name
| here soon) single-handedly organized Linux Against Poverty, it became obvious
| we were going to need top-tier techs to pull it off. Hundreds of computers
| were going to be showing up. Computers that needed fixing, diagnosing or
| repairing of some sort...we had no idea of the condition of any of them that
| would be arriving. We needed top of the line guys. Guess who showed up and
| took on the leadership role to organize the whole thing.
|
| Andy Krell.
|
| And Andy didn't just troop the line and bark orders...he unloaded trucks, he
| got his hands cut to ribbons on sharp edges and jutting screws, and he
| carried machines back and forth to their assigned places. His jouneyman
| skills were responsible for breathing life into dozens of machines I would
| have gutted for parts and through on the scrap heap.
|
| So Linux Luminary...Ya Think? I think so.

| Sucks or Scores is a game where the player/victim is asked their
| opinion on a topic. The response is either "sucks" or "scores",
| sucks being bad, scores being good. Another option exists, that
| being "pass", but it ruins the alliteration in the game's name.

15 Great Quotes from Torvalds and Stallman about Free and Open Source Software
,----[ Quote ]
| 1. "To be able to choose between proprietary software packages is to be able
| to choose your master. Freedom means not having a master. And in the area of
| computing, freedom means not using proprietary software."
| Â Â Â -Richard M. Stallman
|
| 2. âSoftware is like sex: it's better when it's free.â
| Â Â Â Â-Linus Torvalds
|
| 3. âValue your freedom or you will lose it, teaches history. 'Don't bother us
| with politics', respond those who don't want to learn.â
| Â Â Â Â-Richard M. Stallman
|
| 4. âSoftware patents are a huge potential threat to the ability of people to
| work together on open source. Making it easier for companies and communities
| that have patents to make those patents available in a common pool for people
| to use is one way to try to help developers deal with the threat.â
| Â Â Â -Linus Torvalds
|
| 5. âIf programmers deserve to be rewarded for creating innovative programs,
| by the same token they deserve to be punished if they restrict the use of
| these programs.â
| Â Â Â -Richard M. Stallman
