Fathers of Linux Revealed: Tooth Fairy & Santa Claus

Posted by timothy on from the humor-trumps-ignorant-posturing dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The Alexis de Tocqueville Institute, which published the results of their very thorough investigation today, turned out to be right. Linus really isn't the father of the Linux operating system. After having been found out, Linus had no choice but to admit -- this is what he has to say: 'Ok, I admit it. I was just a front-man for the real fathers of Linux, the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus.'"

    Seems like Linus was right about some kind of takeover. Alexis de Tocqueville Institute website seems to be down currently. This might be for reasons of heavy traffic though but we'll find out soon enough.
