Please volunteer for this. It's a Friday night so I can't do it.

All you have to do is show them a window manager, a few of your
favourite applications, and answer questions. The best answer is "I'm

who will know."

If at first you don't succeed, try a shorter bungee. When in trouble,
when in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout. The two great secrets
of success are: don't tell anyone everything that you know.
