"Before too long we will all have to ride trains and planes in the nude, carrying nothing."
You forgot that your wrists and ankles will be chained to the seats. After all, terrorists stand up and walk around and you could have a gun hidden in the bathroom.
As long as there are evil commies going into space, the USA will be right there with money to spend on going to the moon to keep them from stealing our precious bodily fluids.
At least he responded in a mature and polite fashion, instead of making himself and by extension the rest of the Open Source movement look like arrogant jerks.
I would be interested to see the other spin on this story: "Microsoft reaches out to open source community, offers to work with noted writer, told to go to hell."
I did. I'm assuming that you didn't bother to, since the article says nothing about the subject other than that the subject "was arrested by by police".

Does it matter?
Hey, you don't mess with Jesus Christ, Vampire Hunter.
Oh, he's marketable. You just have to give the audience all magnifying glasses.
And they said that the new nvidia drivers weren't fast.
Just wait until you see who he gets replaced with.
He can't declare war either, but why let technicalities get in the way?
After reading this I expected to read that Judge McMahon had called the RIAA lawyer a Nazi.
It's not a mistake. The article really is about combining ASL and Pig Latin into Code Sign Language.
My faith in humanity is tempered by what it is that I have faith that they will do.
Honestly, I'm not sure which is funnier. That The Man is going after eDonkey or that The People are still trying to use it.
And if your technology is distinguishable from magic, then it's not sufficiently advanced. Time to build a bigger lightning bolt thrower.
Nah, just send them down to Lafayette Street in New York City with a handful of new street signs. I trust the the locals could explain things to them.
