[oclug] Re: [oclug-announce] Thank you Dan Langille

[Brad Barnett]

Ah-ha!

I *KNEW* IT!

For years, I've known that Dan was up to something!  I've known that Dan's
entire purpose, that his entire involvement with OCLUG was nefarious in
nature! Now, I have that proof!  NOW, YOU WILL ALL BE SORRY YOU DID NOT
HEED MY ADVICE!

So clear, it is.  So devious and full of genius, be it!

Dan simply made himself so useful, so irreplaceable, so much a part of
OCLUG that by leaving, he actually bolsters the BSD movement!  OCLUG is
weakened, and thereby Linux, and therefore BSD is strengthened!

:P

In all seriousness, hopefully all is well with Dan.  He may have strange
BSD urges, but we all need have our little flaws. ;)
