[TriLUG] book for kids on open source philosophy?

[Neil L. Little]

Little brother, I liked very much. It caused me to think of security in 
a much different way. I also look at government in a much different way. 
I think Heinlein applies.
A warning, its subversive ... in a good way ... depending on your world 
view.

73,
