This is ludicrous.
Pally, your blathering flamebait regarding Linus' opinion was unwanted,
unwelcome, and illustrative of the kind of thinking that idolizes shiny
things, without ever having to do real work on a computer.
I've personally been using Linux since 1992, Redhat since the
"Halloween" release up until FC1 began, and every release of FC/F up
until today -- not that that matters one iota, except to point out just
how much you've messed up, Son.
Old timers will note that I have attacked nothing but your arguments --
and if that reflects poorly on the arguer, that's for you to figure out.
Meanwhile, everybody sees what you just did -- and those with critical
thinking skills can see, plainly, the logical fallacies that you are
clearly unaware of having uttered. That, too, is your problem -- all
because you posted your flame bait.
Hell, isn't it?

I get the impression that you're suggesting that I lack critical
thinking skills but you have them. Ignoring the sheer arrogance of that
thinking for the moment, let me just point out that Gnome 2 is dead and
won't be coming to another Fedora release ever - little critical
thinking needs to be done to understand that.
As for the hell you imply that I might be feeling - sure. It's hell to
see what undoubtedly passes for adults in other arena's acting like
impudent children stammering and jumping up and down and shouting... I
want that toy.
The real flamebait here was Ed's original post in the thread about your
beloved Linus embracing Gnome 3 - his earlier dis or his current embrace
of Gnome 3 really doesn't matter... Gnome 2 is dead save for any
reasonable efforts to fork it (which I doubt will ever occur).
