No, I think he was serious, and I agree with him. Do you want

I agree with the point you are trying to make, but best to:
s/nvidia/ati
More especially:
s/nvidia/display manager/
no kidding... have to debug why gdm (work machine, for the general

Scientists are people, too. IOW, they also "crave power, money,
respect, and influence, and they also fear for their jobs. Each

good scientist into a bad one; and in some cases, they can turn
a good scientist into a charlatan."
