I have engaged in the political thread too (about pirating LFS) and I
wish I hadn't. We are a bunch of racing simmers here and for the most
part we like each other and get along. When you bring politics into the
equation, only bad things can happen.

We have different philosophies and that's great -- it makes the world an
interesting place. But let's not injure our relationships with each
other by bringing political differences into this group. I am killfiling
the whole thread and if everyone else does the same it will die.

Just my $.02. Carry on...

I agree.  Let's talk about drinking and broads. (Sorry if I have offended
any broads out there).

Maybe so.  It felt strange just typing the word "broad".  I guess I'm just a
00's PC kind of guy.

Is that GPL a democrat, independent, green party or a republican?

Aw Mikkel, now why didya have to do that - I was just ready to let it
all go, and then you bring something as politically controversial like
the GNU Public License into it   ;)

Definitely a leftie, I'd say - didn't bring in any real money, remember?
   ;)

But not Green, since it causes people to leave those power-gulping CRT
monitors on for far too long  :)

Gee, I thought it might be right wing - it's got a large following among
(Papy) Nazies. ;)
