Maybe it is in the best interest of Planet Earth that we should provide some safe place, possibly some South Pacific island, where we could set up a quarrantine camp for hardcore linux developers. All of their needs would be provided for, of course, since it is not their fault they are afflicted with this problem. Someplace near an undersea fiber link would most likely be best since their activities will need to be closely monitored at all times and instant global communication of their "progress" is vital. Judging from the pasty faces of many Linux developers, sunshine might be the perfect remedy.
