[NCLUG] RFC: draft of press release -- comments from another side

[NIESEWAND,OLIVER (Non-HP-FtCollins,ex1)]

I'd be happy to look over the current revision and add some comments with

The views expressed here are my own, and not those of my employer.

this reminds me of a teacher i had in highschool. he always talked about
students belonging to the elongated yellow fruit school of writing. his
advice for them... if it's a banana, call it a banana :)
