... reader tacky enough to say this is one weird story, and everyone involved sounds insane. Nuts. Demented. Several bricks shy. And so forth.

Well, we have heard Hans described as wierd, and warped...

Wierd? Gosh, I thought y'all were talking about me! ;-)

Wierd is ok, I'm not so sure about the warped part :)

OK --

Something is strange when we've got our good friend the Rev linked to Hans Reiser in a weird and warped universe.

So ... is parris4 going into the kernel or not...Wait!!! No, that's not it...ReiserSword to hold all your...nooooooooo.

Whatever.

Hope the soon to be former Mrs. Hans turns up to live a long and happy life.

Hope Hans ends up all right, weird and crotchety or not. Talented guy with much to offer. Nobody (NOBODY) deserves to go through his current situation.

As to the Rev, well...

We may joke, but we know he's all right.

Agree, lets hope this is all just rumor and misunderstanding.

I missed the boat on Rob Levin. What happened to him?

Seriously, HR is combative at times, and a lot of people don't agree with his actions and methods, but I think his contribution to Linux stands for itself. I hope everything works out and nothing weird or wrong happened.
