</div></div>I'm sure they'll be other theme days though that others will start,<br>
like a Buffer Overflow Security Awareness Day that others can<br>
organise.<br>
<br>
I'm just leading the way of a new trend, my day wasn't successful, but<br>
if HD Moore or others announce some other theme day, i'm sure it will<br>
be a success.<br>
