  Heh.  Thanks.  Now that I'm not the leader of BLUG, I don't feel bad
plugging my stuff.  Ironically though, Suso just hired Scott Blaydes to be
the first sysadmin other than me so let the conspiracy theories commence.

  My opinion on marketing ourselves though is that we shouldn't need to
market ourselves much.  The best products often advertise once and then
have a good reputation from there on and don't need to give people
reminders. How many Mercedes commercials do you see?  Beyond that, so
many companies nowadays have advertisements that are so far from the
truth of the actual experience of the product that it has eroded
people's trust in marketing.

  Ok, this is a Linux list and we've gotten off topic.
