    for a well honored clan name that ONCE stood for valor, honor and courage, now it is sullied and whored by being anywhere near Stallman.

    Open source is a GREAT thing. However stallman, is a communist tyrant that wishes to eliminate the ability for us to CHOOSE what we want to have. Stallman is the typical historical liberal that proves he/she has NO INTEREST in others, but only their own selfish interests at ANY COSTS.
