techies vs lay-persons (Score 1)

I think that maybe some readers do not understand what the recent publicity that /. has received in the past months means. It means there are far more laypersons reading this than most could imagine, trolls or not. I myself have no technological background, but I am part of the Linux community in my own right. And for that reason, I read this site more than any other news site out there. I appreciate the opinions and honesty posted here. Like most people, I enjoy having a choice about how I feel about Katz or any of /. stories. Most discussions that ensue are ususally quite interesting. And I have my our opinions about those as well. Like Katz or not, he makes techies and lay-persons stand for what they believe in.
