"If it's one thing I've learned this mortal life it's this: You can't learn to appreciate until you're about to lose something, or have lost it already."

You should say "I can't learn to appreciate until I ..."

I can, I have learnt to appreciate what I have and even what I had and lost.

I've also learnt that what is true for "I" is not alway true for "you" :)

I'm going the other way, I went from Debian to Ubuntu in thr 6.04 days, but now I do not want to upgrade to the next Ubuntu, it's been going Downhill since 9.04. Less stable , more bugs and going way too Appleish/iPodish at every release. Switch the windows button to the left side? WTF, Taskbar freezing every few hours , grmbl.

I'm now Using Debian again on new installs, and when updates stop for 9.04 9.10 I will not Upgrade , I'll switch those boxes to Debian.

You're in the USA, why doesn't she sue?

If she can document that and prove it, surely one of the 923 432 432 lawyer you have over there will be happy to take that case.

except that the libraries are written in C++ too...

And Rock 'n Roll will never die.

You do not know anyone in power then.
