Greg might be a giant and he might squish people without ever even
noticing, but that's just a grave, deadly physical threat no real kernel
hacker ever feels threatened by. (Not much can hurt us deep in our dark
basements after all, except maybe earthquakes, gamma ray eruptions and Mom
trying to clean up around the computers.)
So Greg, if you want it all to change, create some _real_ threat: be frank
with contributors and sometimes swear a bit. That will cut your mailqueue
in half, promise!
Thanks,
Ingo
