I think that level of English grammar is completely lost on most,
particularly those educated in the M$ era. You'd be lucky to get bizness
out of them yet "GCSE grades have reached another record level - with
more than one in five exams (21.6%) being awarded an A* or A."
Mind you, just look at the ones who spell Linux "GNU/Linux", just
appalling use of the language. All I can think is that Linux is on the
right to signify moving forward and GNU is on the left trying to drag it
back in to 1984. Shame we can't all be like Linus Torvalds, "respec init".
