Granted I've just jumped into this thread reading this last message, but I
couldn't pass up on the irony that this message offers.

Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program <-- Ed, the size of the
flame coming out of that email won't win hearts at the dance. :)

I've been a member of the list for some time now, and I've seen some stupid
questions, but I never expected you of all people to take the time to fry
someone for asking a, granted unresearched and well documented, question!

I've lost my redhat-list innocence. *sniff*

Have a great weekend all,

Toby
