Touche! Okay, point taken well.  It's fine to dream in idle conversation that
Linux and Computing As We Know It Today will still be around in 40 years.  
But to rely and believe it is still dangerous.  For all we know, the year
2000 might usher in a time of ludditism and computer folks like those here
may be an endangered species in the year 2038.
