I wouldn't consider yourself "blamed" either. I would count myself as
a fencerider about the issue (I didn't mind the artwork but I wasn't
going to use this month's backdrop) but I think more human
representation in an OS is a great idea. Of course being an
anthropologist tends to bias me a bit as well ;)
