Most of the Linux users I know who do not choose to use Debian do so
because app Foo < version x.0.  Debian Testing is the better of both
worlds: stable and recent.

The reason men worship God in a casual way is because they do not see
God in His Glory.  If a man has ever had Isaiah's vision of the Holiness
of God, he would be changed in an instant.  But until men have seen God
as He truly is they will be forever guilty of the very same rebuke that
God gave to the wicked in Psalms 50:21: 'You thought I was just like
you'.
Jeremiah Burroughs, pastor and author (1599-1646)
