    I am very sad for Torvalds not being there, considering how many things work on Linux these days. Very bad job Giz. You made me (and more readers) very bitter.

    hahah he does have a point though. though linux is still small in the desktop world, it's used to run alot of commercial and business tech and all the companies mentioned above i'm sure use it to some extent.

    I solved the Pancake Problem by the time I was 10.



    x = P + (P x M oz.) + 2B + E *3 + SB where SB > 5.



    P equals the number of pancakes in a stack

    M equals Maple Syrup

    B equals Butter Pats

    E equals Eggs (sunnyside up)

    SB equals a Side of Bacon



    Any stack of Pancakes is to be covered in a number of ounces of warm Maple Syrup equal to the number of Pancakes plus 2 Pats of Butter plus Three Eggs Sunnyside Up, with a Side of Bacon of no less than 6 rashers of Bacon.



    Using this formula, you will have a crazy delicious breakfast and be able to have a rad day sledding and throwing snowballs, providing there is adequate snow to shut down the schools and permit reindeer games.

    @OMG! Ponies!: That's great, but did you happen to stumble upon the post-sledding optimum hot-chocolate to marshmallow ratio in your adventures? Remember: for every 8 ounces of cocoa, you must have no less then 10 mini-marshmallows. Real ones, too, none of that freeze-dried crap.

    @OMG! Ponies!: Blasphemy!! Outrage!!



    I will kindly... provide the correction..



    Whereby;



    X = n[(P + MP) + B + E + Hb] + [(Sb^n+1) +(Sb)]



    => Whereby



    n is a function of number of times ordered based on the Munchies Theorem



    Hb Equals a Side Hash Browns

    And SB, is a Side of Bacon as function of n whereas Sb>2 with respect (and dictated by) the quantum laws of porker preservation while oak smoke flavor is super saturated by coffee sipping.



    But you were 10, so I guess you may be gradually forgiven.

    But you are right to deduct points. In fact, if you didn't mean to already I'd say it should be a +1/-1 equation. Or worse.
