Bridging Unix and Windows At NASA

slashdotess writes "Information Week reports: "About a year ago, Patrick McCartney, a Johnson Center project manager, created a Linux desktop environment that could also run government-mandated Microsoft apps. This let his team of 30 engineers continue to program in a Unixlike environment and create Word documents and Outlook E-mail all on the same PC. This mixed-use scenario is slowly taking hold, encouraged by a growing number of applications for running Linux on PC desktops." Score another one for Linux on the Desktop."

    dude... you also said she is "hot", now... logicaly that means that you see her as a "sex" object in your mind. Since you see her as a sex object the next thing follows is that you don't mind fucking her... and that is what was suggested just previously

    Actually I believe it is legal to marry your cousin here in the UK. Not that I know anyone who has done that, but I have heard it is common among certain immigrant communities.

    You believe right. I understand that it used to be common practice in the Royal Family. This might well explain Prince Charles.

    Someone would like to screw his sister or mother?
    That would not be here. That would be on Jerry Springer, National inquiror, or Fox News.
