[NCLUG] Why not Root?

[Jeffrey D. Means]

James, you mention pathmunge as a fix for your /etc/profile but I can't

you wrote?

Thanks,
Jeff Means

What we need is very simple: a recognition that Internet-style
connectivity is our right as fundamental infrastructure just like the
roads are. We can share them like the roads or power lines. --Bob
