BTW, I find it amusing the way the Sherman Act and other anti-trust statutes are viewed by some on this thread. These obscene pieces of statist crap are treated with almost reverential awe.

Well, I'd be tempted to apply the "obscene piece of crap" characterization to a certain piece of software whose integrity and uniformity is considered important by some, but I hear the next version is supposed to suck less. I also hear the "obscene" part is supposed to be a big part of the appeal the works of a certain novelist cum philosopher have for callow young minds, enough to overcome a prose style many consider somewhere in the "crap" neighborhood. I couldn't say, though.

As for the statist part, I still got that open challenge to the "Who is John Galt" crowd, where do you (and Bill) want to go today? Bahamas, with that capitalism.org guy? Good luck getting those all important intellectual property rights enforced here, if Bill followed that path. Otherwise, the process for getting laws repealed or changed is clear. Some think those who whine about things but don't try to change them are crybabies, but who can say?

Cheers, Dan.
