Come on, even Linus himself admitted at a time he was a bit jealous of our
oh so cute mascot :-)

[ soap box on ]

What is silly in the other idea is having the penguin (or whatever logo they
want to take) knocking down Chuck. It is definitely the spirit no one among
Linuxers & BSDers should have.

We -- FreeBSD and Linux -- are competitors but not enemies. That's something
I've never able to understand: raving Linux fanatics. There are also BSD
raving fanatics of course but as there are more Linux fans, there are more
fanatics too.

I don't like fanatics, on either side. Blind bashing is stupid. Even simple
bashing doesn't make things progress.
