SS, everything is NOT about MS, no matter how you want to paint it

Once again, this is not about MS. Plain and simple. It is about a bad patent that should never have been issued. Stop making everything about them and looking for BillG under every rock. You keep assuming that because I don't agree with your fundamental premise to everything ("Microsoft sucks") that I must be some sort of supporter of theirs. Nope, but hey, being wrong never stopped you before, did it? The reality is, no matter how much they have done wrong in the past and no matter how much you hate them, they are not ALWAYS on the wrong side of every issue just because they are them.

If Eolas had gone after anyone but MS, you would be against it, too, but since they chose your favorite target, you claim to support them while ignoring the truth. An action such as this needs to be good on its own merits, not just because you happen to like the target.

And no, the President cannot fire the head of the patent office.

"It is not intended for you or any Microsoft fans. It is for others. Just ignore me, please!"

It's stuff like that that REALLY makes me believe you actually are an MS employee, trying to discredit true OSS/Linux users by making them seem like complete idiots. That, or you just enjoy preaching to the choir of the 2 or 3 other fringe people here who might agree with you (assuming they are actually separate real people and not just alternate nicks of yours). Because of the way you present yourself and your ideas, it is completely impossible for you to ever convince anyone of the validity of the points you claim to support, and you honestly never want anyone to take you to task or engage in real debate with you, so who are these "others?"

System Cleanser. Very appropriate. Kind of like Exlax or ColonCleanse, eh?
