Since this is on -chat, I hope you understand that my post regarding 'jugs' was a joke, meant to be humorous, and not a flame or rant that should be taken personally. I'm taking yours the same way, of course. On the subject of the P-47, the thing was quite a "Jug", with enough firepower to do lots of damage, and enough reinforcement in the fuselage that it was harder than most to destroy. With that in mind, maybe it would be suitable to compare it to FBSD. And, while we're on that subject, maybe we should merge this we another thread and change the 'daemon' logo to that of a WWII fighter plane ;-) Loving FBSD whatever it's called or depicted as, Kevin Kinsey DaleCo, S.P. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kelly Hendrix" To: Sent: Sunday, November 03, 2002 1:36 PM Subject: Re: -current marcketting name? > Being a male over the age of 13 with a pulse, of course I understand the > connotation of "Jugs" as a name.
