Until recently it was quiet there too.  A tad of controversy turned that
around.  It usually does.  Maybe we can do the same here as it would be nice to
see more activity in this echo.  The second OS I was forced to learn was Unix,
albiet not BSD, and it was the OS that made me take interest in computers and
what they can really do as opposed to what others wanted me to know about their
computer(s).  DOS almost ruined that for me but as luck would have it both
Linux and FreeBSD got me back in sync with Unix after I was on my own
computerly speaking on ye ol' 486.  I was ready to give up on computers.

So what's your excuse?

Life is good,
Maurice
