[CoLoCo] UBUNTU SURVIVAL : SAVE THY SELF

[Brett Trigg]

Hi There,
    I would be interested too.
    Not much of a developer here, but I can definitely help with the 
"dangers of" text and do leg work to get it where it needs to be.
    I also am a "Hey!  That hill looks like a good one to die on!" kind 
of person, so I'd be willing to go to bat for the idea.

    Any guidance would be appreciated.
