that’s not normally a “tech environment” makes it a lot less
threatening, for loss of a better term. So I would strongly urge
everyone who wants to promote FOSS, GNU/Linux and Linux (for those
who want to make that distinction, which I don’t anymore) take the
word forth to places where you might not normally find tech talk;
like farmers markets, or tractor pulls, or gun shows. Anywhere
where people congregate is a place where FOSS can be pitched.”
