How Distrowatch's Ladislav Bodner does what he does is a complete mystery to me.

Or was it Linux Today... I can't find it, but I seem to recall that Distrowatch was blocking referrals from one of them.

I've never seen DW refuse referrals from LXer. Not since I started frequenting LXer anyway. I'm not so sure about LT but I can't recall anything specific either.

I thought it was PP who did that?

Meh, there was something about Distrowatch. Maybe it was a reaction to the MS ads on Linux Today. Maybe I'm getting more senile.
Scott_Ruecker ·
I don't think your getting senile, but if you are, it looks great on you..

LOL!!

Aw, you sweet talker. Just for that, I think I'll go ahead and try on that dementia I was looking at!

Dementia is fun, avoid zealotry.

Scott_Ruecker ·
Bob, Did you just say avoid zealotry?

You saying that IS funny!!
ColonelPanik ·
I'll second that Scott.

In context it's not so funny. After all, he is admitting dementia. :)
ColonelPanik ·
Bob just transposed his thought, he meant: Zealotry is fun, avoid dementia.
