I would like to bring this story to everyone's attention:

The effort has just 40 days to raise @ $350k to sponsor an Indy 500 race
car.  Even if you're not a racing fan, this is an opportunity to help make
"Linux" a household word.  As most people know, there is no real marketing
effort backing GNU/Linux.  Such effort is definitely necessary and would
help change the whole marketplace.  If Linux has spread as well as it has by
users helping friends, just think what would happen with a real marketing
effort.  Mozilla did this with Firefox and are now challenging MSIE like no
browser before it.

with apologies to L4C subscribers for the cross-post

Regards,
Don
