Dedication

Since we established the GNU Public Dictatorship Rewards Program we have repeatedly been impressed by the tales of dedication to the Cause that are reported. As is to be expected, most of them are severely embellished, but sometimes you find a gem. And sometimes you find a gem through the traditional media. James Coleman, of Bristol, England, is such a gem. He was the Leader of the Bristol GPD Chapter until recently when he resigned citing the fact that the administrative duties of the GPD Chapter were interfering with his personal crusade with the Company. We had always been pleased with his work, and so we accepted his resignation. Since the demise of the Company he has been working tirelessly to counteract the evil Parent Corporation, and his efforts have prevented them from gaining a foothold anywhere near Bristol. In fact, Bristol was recently named the City With the Fewest Brads(CWFB) by the International Office Products Association (IPOA). The astute among our supporters will be thinking to themselves, "Hey, the IPOA is merely a subsidiary of the Parent Corporation." They would be correct, which lends the CFWB award much more credibility. If your enemies fear you, you have done well. Anyway, it seems that James was using his Blackberry to evangelize about the GPD to his friends when the Parent Corporation planted a large tree in his path. Although he is now being ridiculed as "the guy who ran into a tree while tweeting" he maintains his dignified and diligent struggle against the Unholy Brotherhood of the Hole Punch. At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not impressed with such efforts, which is why James Coleman of Bristol is our newest Hero of the People! Congratulations, James.
