looks like someone hasn't read the Linux Advocacy
mini-HOWTO in quite a while.  for your convenience,
just follow this link:

http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Advocacy.html

make sure to read chapter 6 carefully.

and yes, you might not be aware of this, but
Python runs on many platforms, and this news-
group is open for all Python users.  if you have
a problem with that, go start your own news-
group.
