Free software is a good way to go. I don't know if it really can make the world a
better place, but at least it seems inherently less harmful. And if nothing else, it's
a good diversion, and can open up new opportunities for our pursuits and research and
other work.
So even if I might not agree with everything everybody says on the mailing list, I still
need to pick your brains. And mostly we're all just trying to help one another.
I think we can all agree on some kind of amorphous THAT. That's why we're here,
not politics or religion or anything dogmatic. None of us wants to mess up a good thing.

This directly leads to the question: are
polititians realy humans or
are in realty some kind of highly evolved parasite?
I tend to think of most of them as parasites. They con us into electing
them, then fatten up at the public trough, and usually stuff their
pockets with lifetime pensions before we vote them out. By that
performance, I'd call them a parasite. Most have never done a good days
work in their lives. I can think of one or 2 exceptions, but that gets
into personalities and is a heck of a good way to start a fight. This
list is contentious enough w/o that.
