Come on Mr Roberts. It has long been known that you dislike BSD
systems. I am not here to argue with you on that issue,
but I am here to take issue with you - and anyone else on the net - 
on this ridiculous and insulting use of phrase you employ with wanton abandon.  
It serves no more purpose than to convice many of us that your articles are
contemptuous and not for serious reading.
Well reasoned and intentioned articles do a lot more to 
convince people than inane utterances.
