From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I find it hard to understand how people are able to kiss the ground without the thought getting in their mind that - someone probably spat/pissed in that place not too long ago.
If they aren't worried about dirt, I doubt that they're gonna be worried about spit or piss.
This was in the desert in texas wasn't it?
good chance nobody has been in that particular spot for a long time
