Sometime in February Bryon Gill assaulted the keyboard and produced:

| He's not a fanatic, he's got principles.  There is a very significant 
| difference.  Most of the RMS bashing out there is poorly-informed 
| groupthink.

i think the difference here is:

principled: i'd be happy to come to speak at your organization. though i 
            would prefer you called it the western pa. gnu/linux users 
            group.

at which point he could come to the lug, speak and refer to linux systems
as gnu/linux and the kernel as linux.

fanatic:    i refuse to speak at your organization, unless the name is 
            changed to the western pa. gnu/linux users group.

 What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
 whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or
 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
