I've yet to encounter the advocacy group that I subsequently wish I
hadn't... When the advocacy newsgroups first showed up in USENET, my
initial reaction was, "Great! Now the religious zealots have a place
to hang, and the signal to noise ratio in the technical newsgroups
should improve tremendously." For what it's worth, I agree that
Linux (or any other) advocacy isn't necessarily "pushing an arrogant
elitist stance". It only seems that way to folks who haven't already
been converted :-).
