They get annoyed easily and whine too much. They should learn how
to kill a thread, but that must be too hard to do.

Ditch the 'circa'.

Why? He didn't post it yesterday, he posted 13 years ago in comp.os.minix.
You really have no idea what circa means, do you?

Thus circa 1991
Saying "circa" implies that evidence points to 1991 but we really don't
know. But we do know, don't we?

So when did Torvalds come up with the idea? Yeah, he posted in 1991
but who knows when he thought of it? I just thought that the casual
nature of the post (by Torvalds) was interesting considering what has
become of linux. I'm sorry you don't like my sig, but don't worry,
I'll change it to something else soon enough.

It doesn't matter if he thought of it in 1978, it's the quote that 'circa
1991' applies to in your sig, not what may or may not have been in Linus'
brain and when. You should replace the 'circa' with "25th August 1991".
Which idea? The idea of writing Linux or the idea of making that post?
If the former, early April 1991. If the latter, early August 1991.
