This seems an appropriate time to ask this: Is your sig meant to disparage Booth, patriotism, or Lincoln? Are you saying that Booth, generally regarded as a bad guy, was actually acting honorably? Are you saying that patriotism is not all it's cracked up to be, because Booth was acting out of patriotism and look at the horrible thing he did? Are you saying that Booth and patriotism are both good things, because Lincoln was bad?
Help me, I'm overcome by multiple interpretations!

I need only give you the names of 2 US College graduates and the damage that they did to the world will trump all the good 100% of foreign born good guys did.

Um, C# is an ISO standard (ISO/IEC 23270) just like C++ (ISO/IEC 14882).

Um, between Ballmer and Jobs, you've got the wrong reality-distorting Steve.
I suggest we stick with fact-based discussions.
Why start now?
First, following your logic, something can be good (+1), plusgood (+2), or doubleplusgood (+3).
Second, and more importantly, the definition of doubleplusgood is whatever we say it is.

ScuttleMonkey is the new Zonk.
At least you get pretty regular Ballmer coverage here on /., while I'm still waiting for a single article about Steve Guttenberg.
