And, there's nothing like sharing a bath (and sharing a server, especially, if
it is named bath).

And, isn't open source, and therefore, Linux, about sharing?

Which sounds better? A bath filling, and people swishing around in a bath, or a
spark plug igniting?

Sharing a bath is supposed to be quite friendly, apart from anything else, like
being economical, etc. And, isn't Linux supposed to be about friendliness (well,
maybe not user-friendliness, but friendliness, all the same), and about being
economical, both with resources, and with costs, like sharing a bath?
