When the original riff was posted “Winter of 95” I was thinking it might be a a song by The Band:
The Night They Drove Old Puffy Down
Theo De Raadt is the name
And I served on the NetBSD train
‘Till Stallman’s cavalry came
And tore up the GPL again
In the winter of ‘95
We were hungry, just barely alive
By May the 10th, Richmond had fell
It’s a time I remember, oh so well
The night they drove old Puffy down
And the ioctls were ringing
The night they drove old Puffy down
And the people were singing
They went, “NOP, NOP, la, NOP, NOP, NOP”

I would’ve loved to see that, great song and great album.
Yay, a Canadian anthem!
