Moses ran knoppix? I thought everyone ran Yggdrasil back then

Then along came Jesus and started a whole new distribution.
More of a fork wouldn't you say? And then not by intention on his part, as he was in computer terms, clarigying the documentation, was he not?

Thanks for recognizing that. One guy cracked a humorous joke. I merely chimed in with my $0.02 worth, and got called off-topic. After defending my position, the whole topic went dead. Very revealing, if not helpful.
Revealing?
I think the discussion of teaching children about Linux is very important.
Indeed, as do I. It just so happens that *I* think the whole thread is a perfect candidate for [OT], being non-technical in it's nature (apart from the "very young children and passwords" -bit)... [OT] was created more or less as a direct result of Fred getting napalmed for posting links to articles, which usually had some sort of relevance to the linux community. It's the place for non-tech stuff.
I truly hope the others have just taken a day off, and not allowed someone's misjudgment to ruin the discussion.

If I was out of line - which I do not believe - someone point out how so. I'm fairly well versed in netiquette, and taught that as part of Internet classes back in the mid 90's.
Fine. I'll just STFU now. /Jon -- Whatever rocks your boat!
