    I recall something from a year or so ago about a foreign family that moved to the US. They had pictures of their infant with the mother in the tub, on the bed, etc. I think a few of the pics were more of a cultural thing. I think the infant ran around naked in the home or something. Basic mother/infant stuff. The film developing place flipped out and called the police. SRS took the child and the mother was arrested. It took her weeks to get it all sorted out and IIRC even then the SRS imposed limitations on her.

    I'm against SRS in its current implementation. 1) They're usually under-funded so many times they can't do all that they need to be doing. 2) There is rarely any good oversight over SRS so abuse like the case above is rampant. 3) Not every set of parents raises their children in the same manner. That doesn't mean what they are doing is illegal by any means (even if sometimes it turns your stomach). SRS workers need to be both smart and compassionate. Unfortunately I believe that all too often they are neither. It's just a job to too many of them. Take this case for example. SRS logged 7 reports about those little girls who's parents were starving them in their basement. WTF is up with that?! SRS was in the freaking house and didn't do a damned thing. That's fucked up.

    Well considering that Linux is developed by teenagers who live in their parent's basements, I would call it reasonable. Look at the dude in the picture. How could you not assume he's a sexless Linux developer?

    Daniel Robbins, lead developer of Gentoo Linux, has resigned because he is facing 50 years in prison for murder. This is very disturbing to the Open Source community. Would YOU use a Linux that was developed by a cold-blooded psychopath?

    Gentoo Linux's lead developer Daniel Robbins is a cold-blooded killer! Maybe this is why he left Gentoo, because he's facing 50 years of hard time?
