People complain about duplicate stores... Imagine what I thought when I read about a 2.2 kernel being newly released! :)

  Look at the numbers.
  
  Spooky, isn't it ?
  
  2.2.22 gets replaced.
  
  What's wrong with all twos ? I think we should be told.....
  
  And 2.4.20 and 2.5.50 just came out.
  
  (20 / 4) / 2) = 2.5. Coincidence ?
  
  5 / 2 = 2.5. Coincidence ?
  
  50 / 20 = 2.5. Coincidence ?
  
  An alien intelligence is at work here. Mark my words......

Kindly take every 486 in working condition you can find and drop it off at my house. A dozen will do nicely thank you. Hell, I'll even take a few busted ones in the lot.

And while you're here I've got a few NST's ( Nice Shiney Things) to sell you. Cheap Price, especial just for you, mi Amigo, orginal, from di ruins.

Glad to know that stability is no longer a needed feature of servers.

Sorry for biting the bait though. It wasn't even a very good troll.
