:) Start Page family filter ;). However, I can do research myself. I
Didn't know about the "kkkubuntu" jokes, but I like it, sarcasm is a
good way to stand the hard reality. Ok, it's unfair, since likely most
Kubnutu folks don't sympathy with the KKK.

Perhaps an important note might be, that many famous artists are
dyslexics and they might see the same shit that I see, while it isn't
really there :S.

However, my first impression was "Golden Dawn", than  noticed that I was
