[ubuntu-us-ma] [Fwd: [FSF] Launching the Windows7sins Campaign - Join us Wednesday in Boston]

Mike C,

Not crazy, just negative. Why have I never gotten a response from the
FSF about Ubuntu activities? Why does the FSF never organise local
educational or advocacy events?

Which is sad, because I know plenty of people at the FSF are awesome
guys.
