I doubt this. Not because I doubt your sincerity; I'm just pessimistic given the hostility displayed by the administrative class toward anything that doesn't have a currency symbol in front of it.

pdp-10 fans have currency symbols tho. lots of people on hackers-l are, as they say, financially independent, and a fair fraction of them are donors to the chm and fans of the pdp-10. plus you have the modern #pdp-10 freenode crowd

First time hearing "administrative class" and god that's fitting for the MBA crowd

aparatchiks we called them where i am from
