All,

I'm looking for a group/mailing[1] list in the Kansas City area that focuses on discussing Linux related topics. If anyone knows of one please let me know.

Footnotes: [1] Start your sarcasm detectors

Ummm...Sorry for starting all this. It was initially meant to poke fun at how ridiculous religious zealots can get when people believe them unquestionably. Did I prove any point with the discussion? If so great. If not then I think I will drop this and go on with Linux based discussions.

...

Actually - Some of us do find a well mannered theology dissertation an art form of sorts. Where the participants further have an audience well able to confirm or refute the canonical accuracy of the most recent salvo it gets higher marks for education and entertainment. There's a caveat however in THIS forum.

"On the KCLUG list Canonical as a term most often links to http://www.canonical.com/ "

Unfortunately I didn't join the list to read about other people's religious view, although I'm sure kctheology.org is available. If kulua.org was working I'd check out that list to see the signal to noise ratio. Anyone know the owner so s/he can kickstart apache?

Agreed- maybe we can return this list to topical matters- like making USB microdrives bootable from a no installed OS required point.

So long, and thanks for all the fish. I looked at the last 10 topics on the kulua/www.kulua.org list (their webserver finally came back up) and they are much more focused:

1. [OT] Business Internet options in KCMO?
2. Bluevirtual
3. Network configuration - gateway or router
4. data format for mysql
5. sFTP logging
6. Sound not working
7. Firewall for Fedora 7 and 8
8. Can I watch what you do with Snort for Network Intrusion Detection?
9. [solved] Re: [KULUA] Windows Permission ?
10. Fortran90 program compile error

Only reason I'm doing a 'sign-out' message is I though some others might be interested in the other list as well.

Thanks. Their website could do with a graphical tough up though. Never heard of them before.

With frank respect for your freedom to choose associating or not based on some list content- I must also request you not give up on this group! Your contributions to the group are of value. One scenario YOU may start and continue some. There are enough list members for each of the "Topicals" to post even one on topic item a week in rotation and displace the OT content. Losing those of a topic focused nature diminishes the list.

So stay with the group ok?
