Current debate with Owl:

* Owl

He engaged in some pretty cool advocacy. He showed he could do with Linux
quite a few things that can be done on a Mac... though it quickly became
clear he had to re-do his set up with what was and was not available. So he
presented Linux as being configurable but not having as much connection with
context as OS X. Fine. Each has strengths and we learned.

Then Owl decided this was not good enough and that one should see clicking
on the desktop to get a task done (leaving the program you are working on)
to be the same as using File > Print because the print dialog is controlled
by the system so it is also leaving the program. Utter nonsense.
