    Known troll rkz is committing theft by karmawhoring THIS COMMENT YESTERDAY which was stolen from THIS COMMENT from another user back in January. Does the text "Comments are owned by the Poster" at the bottom of the page mean anything? Why aren't comment thieves dealt with?

    I have no idea why people are moving over to open source. I think this says it all.
