Re: what ever happened to linux?(Rep. Cleaver/immigration rants, etc.)

I may be just a reader of the forum for the vast majority of the posts arriving at my electronic doorstep but, I feel rather mystified..... I thought this is the Kansas City LINUX Users Group. While I can be massively entertained by the sociological/political/religious meanderings of some folks who post here, my primary interest is in learning as much as I can about, you guessed it, LINUX. So, howzaboutit? If some folks wish to beat each other about the head and shoulders in a virtual world, why not go pick an open field and go at it for real instead of wasting our collective in-boxes with non-linux trivia?
