This is what gives us horrors like GNU emacs and Mach: they don't try to do one thing well, they try to do _everything_ based on some loose principle" (Linus Torvalds, 26 Mar 1998) > Theo de Raadt: Theo is an exceptional candidate.

"First off, I don't like a lot of the elitism that does on among Linux hackers.[...] If you think using Un*x makes you some kind of super genius who should be feared by mere mortals and end users, either get over it or start using *BSD. *BSD users (and developers) are all complete jackasses, so you'll fit right in."
