Well worth the read...lots of history and facts that most ewcomers to
*NIX were not aware of. Aso some interesting references to the
invention of a better way to write effective code (a.k.a. free/open

Ya gotta respect ESR's thoughts, historical perspective, and support,
but I have a feeling that his wife (a lawyer, I believe) had a lot of
input on this).
