Google News also covers The UFO Digest -

But I'm rather sure that's not going to be foisted upon us as
mainstream (or at least I hope...)

Second, who really gives a rats ass about what some random business
guy says about Linux? The entire point of open source and free
software is lost on him because he exists in a world where money is
the driving force behind everything, and that's not the case with
Linux. Open source is about freedom and if it becomes 'less relevant'
in his world, I don't really care, as there's a lot of people out
there who understand and will use it as it's intended to be used.

Fanaticism is a problem no matter which side it comes from (Attempting
to conver everyone to Linux, no matter if it fits them or not, or
attempting to convert everyone from linux, no matter if it fits them
or not)...
