And I'd still not care.  And, remarkably, still don't.

If someone doesn't know how to use chattr, they shouldn't be screwing
around with weird filesystems anyway.

I'm willing to bet, right here in front of fifty jillion readers of this
list, that you can't find three emails you've received from people who:

1) Got their XF86Config-4 hosed.
2) Didn't understand why.
3) Use a non-ext-derived filesystem.
3b) Can articulate why they're doing so in a technical manner.

Yes, but most of us aren't talking to you on this subject, since you
left the path of reason almost immediately.

I'm naive enough to think you might learn something.
