I smell trouble there Joe. But the idea of asking thirfts stores to
put up stickers would be nice. The other option would be to pass out
fliers or post something on company internal blogs telling people
about the wonderful world of open source. I may use Ubuntu mainly but
I've used CentOS in the past, SuSE and other Linux Varients. Right now
I don't know how to really sponser the group out to people that don't
know about Linux. Or the very least to tell people about folks like
us.
