[Timothy A. Holmes] 

While I agree with the sentiment expressed, in our fighting, we may be
running off many valuable users -- My own first experience with a Linux
community list (not this one) when I was first beginning linux nearly
soured me on the entire concept of open source software.  The major
complaints?   Top posting -- I posted a simple question to the list of
major distro, and received in reply no less than 7 flames before I
received one civil answer.  We as linux users need to be careful of how
we present ourselves to the greater community of computers, or we risk
being marginalized as wild eyed radicals.  

Just a few thoughts for the group
