Fun stories!

My "It's in the wiki" shirt gets all kinds of conversations going.  The
PLUG T-shirt has led to many also.

I really should subscribe to the Linux Journal since I purchase it every
month at the bookstore.  But, about half the times when I purchase one
in the store I get a conversation with someone .  Sometimes it's someone
else buying a computer magazine.  Sometimes it's the clerk at the
counter.  It costs more but the conversations are fun!
