   Hey All!   
      
   When I pointed my browser to http://gcc.gnu.org/ and took a look at   
   "Serious regressions" under the "Current release series: GCC 4.6.0"   
   heading, on Fri Apr 15 2011 17:41:05 UTC, I was confronted with this   
   quip which is apparently tacked on via   
   http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/quips.cgi near the top of the report as   
   follows;   
      
   ------------ start gpm cut `n paste   
      
   In the open-source community, we have a favorite quote from Mohandas   
   Gandhi:  "First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight   
   you. Then you win." Evidently, we're getting close to winning. -- esr   
      
   ------------ end gpm cut `n paste   
      
   Hope nobody minds.  What can I say?  At least it wasn't from a google   
   search.  :::evil grin:::   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
