Jump on the wagon! On the contrary, we are THRILLED to know that there are a
lot of Linux users under 18. The more linux users under 18 there are, the
more highly-technology literate young people with open minds to new
software, the better future there is. I encourage you to bring all of
your friends who use linux, and also some friends you know that are
hesitating whether to install it, to the meeting.

And remember: "On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog". Email makes
age, sex, race or favourite ice cream tastes transparent.

Well, let's say that yashar vela'inyan; I'm 17. Roji is 17. Chen Shapira
is 17. I know of other members who are under 18. I was present, together
with 2 or 3 other young friends, when I was 15 (or was that 16?) in the
first meeting of the linux-il list, and some of us young folks are on the
list ever since Harvey's original post to il.* about linux users in
Israel that started it all.
The next generation of Israeli Linux users has been, and I'm sure that
will continue to be, an integral part of the linux-il group ever since
its founding and during all of its activities.
