"It works both ways"
YOU SAID IT! So where do you get off on your
rants about the GPL? And Stallman?

Microsoft can do whatever they want with
their code. The FSF can do the same! Get
over it! You don't like the terms, don't use
it. And don't get the idea that the FSF is
afraid of you or Microsoft. Microsoft is the
biggest bully on the market, but evidently,
they don't have the smarts to use their
position to their own advantage. Maybe
because, like you, they think they're
smarter than everyone else?

Every post you make calling Richard Stallman
names only goes to prove that he's a bigger
and better man than yourself. You don't see
him railing against you or Microsoft with a
potty mouth.
