Right. I remember debating the Troll Tech folks at the Linux Kongress in
Cologne a few years ago. We managed not to shout at each other. It's much
worse than FreeBSD vs. Linux, which gets pretty silly and heated.

Speaking of heated battles, we aren't letting any of those Emacs junkies
on the board, are we? Darned thing grows hair on your palms. Emacs will
corrupt your sister. It will make your wife run away with a sailor. :-)
