So lets get started...

Not the only thing that went wrong...

When we were kids...

You* became OLD ... * - Heights of me living in denial

We were educated

Pleasure of finding things out..

Curiosity is the fuel for all inventions and development .

Next up... It wouldn't hurt if we knew where we came from...

Pascal Adder - 1642

Hacker Any person who likes to explore details of a system and extend their functionality as opposed to most people who prefer to learn the bare minimum.

Love to share and collaborate

Sharing and collaboration is the key

Bottom line: Have fun When you're pissed off at someone and you're angry at them, you just haven't given them enough time. Just give them a little more time and they almost always will impress you . – Randy Pausch

And one more thing...

Preach culture of Free software NOT the politics / philosop hy

Hold your fire

Something was wrong

Change of strategy
