yeah, probably not...

but what happens to linux after linus dies? referring to the article
where someone mentioned microsoft's destiny after bill dies...

hehe...

seriously... it seems to me, listening how linux people talk, that there
are things depending in a way or another on linus... in today's world
the tomorrow is never guaranteed, so you never know if linux is much around
in say 15 years from his death...
