Take it easy Karen Alains comments were a flame[0] I am not even sure he
realised we had an honest to goodness lawyer on the list.  By the looks
of it you are pretty new to Gllug and Linux in general, so be prepared
to read lots of stupid, ignorant and bigoted opinions about lawyers,
politicians, marketing executives, managers, in fact just about anyone
who isn't a die hard *nix hacker.  Tech types be an asocial bunch at the
best of time.  If people really tick you off learn to use a kill file
and treat them as spam.

P.S. don't let on you are a Conservative or the anarchists will get you.
;)

Peace Jim
