My mom had a total complete meltdown of brain-usage. I asked her how you turned out of the power for the entire house, and she showed me the button on the power relay that would kill the power. Then, completely oblivious to whatever electric objects in the house that was turned on (including her computer), she pressed the button.

A teacher has thrown a student into detention and threatened to call the police for using Linux in her classroom.
The teacher spotted one of her students giving a demonstration of the HeliOS distro to other students. In a somewhat over-the-top reaction, she confiscated the CDs, put the student on detention and whipped off a letter to the HeliOS Project threatening to report it to the police for distributing illegal software.
"I am sure you strongly believe in what you are doing but I cannot either support your efforts or allow them to happen in my classroom," writes the teacher, identified only as Karen.
"At this point, I am not sure what you are doing is legal. No software is free and spreading that misconception is harmful. I will research this as time allows and I want to assure you, if you are doing anything illegal, I will pursue charges as the law allows.
"I along with many others tried Linux during college and I assure you, the claims you make are grossly over-stated and hinge on falsehoods. I admire your attempts in getting computers in the hands of disadvantaged people but putting Linux on these machines is holding our kids back," she writes.
"I am sure if you contacted Microsoft, they would be more than happy to supply you with copies of an older verison of Windows and that way, your computers would actually be of service to those receiving them..."

Oopsy, Oopsy.
As a proud Ubuntu user, I am personally offended. Now you have to see what us, the disciples of his holiness Richard Stallman have to put up with.

Its his signature look
Saying bush is in charge is like saying the canary is in charge of the mine:
He's flattered by the attention of the miners; baffled by their reasons for keeping him alive.
He's a mere ornament on a much more dangerous thing. Like a bobble hat on a leopard. A Tank top on a scorpion. - Bill Bailey
