You just quoted only part of my article and you are saying that you are
annoyed.  I think that it is because of your petty personality.

Read back the article posted by 386BSD FAQ maintainer.
He just flamed, harrassed, and made fun with the innocent and naive new user.
He could have kindly said, "*BSD vs. Linux was discussed ... and I suggest
you to read the previous articles. If they are expired at your site, here is
the ftp site from which you can retrieve ...etc.".   
I think that at least this should be the attitude of any FAQ maintainer.

Now, new users will ask the same question again and again.
And you harrass them just like the 386BSD FAQ maintainer and yell,
"leave us alone".  Wouldn't it make *BSD more isolated ?
I have never heard of "Leave us alone !" in any news group (esp. from an
FAQ maintainer - BTW, should the FAQ be for such new naive users ?)
except from Waco's Cults.
