    The only excuse some individuals have for not listening to Richard is personal prejudice against Richard's way of life.

    How about the fact that his ideals, while admirable in a perfect utopian world, just don't work in this world, where we have to deal with human nature?

    Or perhaps some of us are irritated by his rather arrogant demands that everyone call "Linux" "GNU/Linux."
