Should I be?  One time in the mid-nineties, Microsoft had some convention 
here, and I was walking by andat a traffic light were two women obviously 
at the convention (and working for Microsoft).  I said something like 
"how's the convention" but got no reply, I guess they got that line too 
many times already.  So a stern look, but no guns.

But I wasn't wearing a "Unix Lives" tshirt or any similar markings.  But 
just like there's a "Mac type" and a "PC type", I probably look like the 
stereotype "Unix type".
