yeah, right ...

it's not syntactic purity. it is hard-coded fact. what the hell is 
"syntactic purity", anyway?

and really - battles and wars? fuck that. you gotta stop watching fox 
news ;)

no one expects anyone to use GNU/Linux in everyday conversations and the 
like, but when you're creating a website or wiki, it's only fair and 
proper that GNU/Linux is used at least somewhere ... the GNU licence and 
software is the most important aspect of Linux, so to diminish its 
importance to a mere matter of semantics is both ignorant and ... ignorant.

by all means, do what you want - but you can have yr fruitcake and eat 
it, too.
