I don't mind people who, like Theo, are feisty and independent. Remember, I'm from Wyoming, where lots of people are that way. (Alberta is the "wild west" of Canada, so the folks there also have a "pioneer" attitude.) As I've said to several people in the FreeBSD community (most recently, Mike Smith), disagreeing is OK. People should be able to get along even if they don't agree on everything. This sort of tolerance is common in frontier cultures such as Wyoming. You respect your neighbor, even if he's a little weird or has different ideas than you, because he may be the one who saves your life during the next snowstorm, drought, or what-have-you. --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
