Subject: Re: Killing PLUG softly
I didn't know that discussing economics was anathema for PLUG. Economics
effects Linux and Linux developers. These subjects are bound to come up, we
live all live in Arizona. Secondly, I didn't know that you were an official
on these matters. Trying to evoke political correctness might score you
points in a university classroom, but not here and most certainly not with
anyone I respect. So keep telling everyone how utterly intolerable and
blasphemous these very important points are. Anyone with half a brain would
take that as a clear signal to listen even closer.

Finally, anyone who is filtering or making a point of it is most likely an
ignoramus who chooses to close his eyes rather than accept the truth, or
even worse is invested in lies. Those people are absolutely dangerous in
serious situations and should be avoided in all situations.
