I liked your story, too.  Sounda kinda familiar to all of us
newbies, no matter how long it's been, as someone was
just saying.

There was a very recent thread on freebsd-advocacy called

I spent a moment doing some more cleaning on it today;
looking better, but *please* don't run it through a validator,
