Mission Statement

I like start any endeavor with a statement of purpose, and this blog is no different. A Linux-user since 2001, I much prefer the Linux/Unix way of doing things, but as many will tell you there is a bit of a learning curve. I received a great deal of help from others surmounting that curve and want to do a bit more to help others. I don't frequent any forums; so I made this blog.

In Linux everything is simple to do if you already know how, or if someone posts a clear solution on the web. Hopefully you will find my posts helpful, if not write me and tell me why. I'll probably just ignore you, but feel free to vent. If there is a topic you would like me to address, say so. If I have any clue what you are talking about, I'll address the subject.

Lastly, I have a great number of biases. I prefer Python to Perl, OSS to non-OSS solutions, ales to pilsners, and I expect this blog to reflect those biases. So tough, you'll put up with it and my eccentric of humor, or you just won't read my posts.
