[svlug] SV Tea Party - InfoWorld column by Robert Cringely

[Hans Cathcart]

I was just reading my recent copy of InfoWorld, Robert X. Cringely's column
when I sumbled across this little tidbit:

	Let them eat Linux
	There was a lot of boasting and showing off at the opening
	of the Microsoft Center in Silicon Valley. Among the more
	bizarre stunts, Linux enthusiasts planned to dump 342 Linux
	CDs with tea bags taped to them in the San Francisco Bay. The
	tea was to commemorate the 1773 Boston Tea Party, whereby
	342 chests of tea were dumped in Boston Harbor.

Uhhhh.. where did this 342 tea bags come from? Aboviously, the columnist
did a lot more historical research than we did. Too bad he didn't go to our
web page and discover that we weren't going to dump the Linux CDs into the
bay. <grin>
