Dream Weaver by Gary Wright on the radio. This has to be a sign. A fucking sign. This song only comes on in my head when I see a hot chick and she. Especially if she is talking to me.

Be careful Leo, dreams aren't what they used to be. Dream weaving, as a profession, has largely been outsourced. Most dreams purchased in America nowadays are woven from synthetic fibers by Chinese laborers paid anywhere from 10-25 cents a day.

I thought this topic would be about the GNU Hurd.
Thanks a fucking million.

The Hurd is the GNU project's replacement for UNIX, a popular operating system kernel.
The Hurd is firstly a collection of protocols formalizing how different components may interact. The protocols are designed to reduce the mutual trust requirements of the actors thereby permitting a more extensible system. These include interface definitions to manipulate files and directories and to resolve path names. This allows any process to implement a file system. The only requirement is that it have access to its backing store and that the principal that started it own the file system node to which it connects.
The Hurd is also a set of servers that implement these protocols. They include file systems, network protocols and authentication. The servers run on top of the Mach microkernel and use Mach's IPC mechanism to transfer information.
The Hurd provides a compatibility layer such that compiling higher level programs is essentially transparent; that is, by means of the glibc, it provides the same standard interfaces known from other UNIX-like systems. Thus, for a typical user, the Hurd is intended to silently work in the background providing the services and infrastructure which the microkernel itself has no business implementing, but that are required for higher level programs and libraries to operate.
The Hurd supplies the last major software component needed for a complete GNU operating system as originally conceived by Richard M. Stallman (RMS) in 1983. The GNU vision directly drove the creation and has guided the evolution of the Free Software Foundation, the organization that is the home of the GNU project.

What surprises me is that they are trying to replace UNIX, and not the Linux kernel. There are hundreds, if not thousands of GNU/Linux distributions, but only a very few GNU/UNIX distributions.

Of course we all know Stallman means Linux when he says "UNIX" because he's butthurt that Torvalds built a working kernel and Hurd is still vaporware.
