And thank you for the penguins

,----[ Quote ]
| Of the many thousands of things we have Linus 
| Torvalds to thank for, one of them is the 
| venerable penguin, symbol of all things Linux.  
| But what if Linus had chosen to instead use 
| the Gnu (I know, that one was already taken, 
| but humor me here), or a beaver, or a bear, or 
| maybe a demon like Freebsd uses? (already, 
| it's technical a "daemon", but let's ignore 
| the technicalities for the sake of this 
| argument.)
