As a co-worker of mine said, "the closer two groups are, the more they
have to sharpen their differences". The lisp community are merely
indifferent to other programming languages, and actively friendy to Forth
-- but most of them would shoot a Scheme programmer on site.
Likewise, the free UNIX community acts derisively towards windows, but BSD
advocates have criminal intentions towards Linux advocates. And of course,
within the UNIX community, while Debian users simply wants using Red Hat
to be a criminal offense, Mandrake users think that putting those people
in prisons is *way* too kind.

Yes they are. Debian is simply a different experience from Red Hat.
