Jon, I blame you for not putting in a QotW this week. The OP is an
obvious troll, fishing for new material to give you. This is his second
post: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/13/66

I guess old Vishal was upset (like many others) about not seeing any
good quotes on LWN, and decided to go trolling for some. Asking this
question (more than once) is a sure way to secure a good juice QotW on
LWN for next week.

Moral of the story is... Don't whimp out on posting QotWs on LWN,
otherwise you get trolls fishing for material, and you happen to be the
one that supplies it (sortof defeating the point).

This is like a directTV commercial...

  Don't reply to trolls fishing for comments. Put in a QotW on LWN.
