Oh, god .... 

Shitload of misunderstandings. He wasn't referring to Americans in the
"idiot" line. He was actually referring to the original poster and
nobody else, and he's not american.

Come on, please everybody chill. It's not the time or place (and there
will never be a time and place) for such a discussion. It's just plain
crap. Everybody, please take a chill pill, ok?

Regardless of your convictions, it is hardly do you any honour \
to refer to Americans as &quot;whining idiots&quot;. \
Especially on this list.

Do you feel morally superior? Technologically superior?
Superior in any respect? Why the smugness?

After all, most of the technology you use was \
invented/developed in the USA, by the same &quot;whining \
idiots&quot;... Including the C# specification.

<FONT COLOR="#000000">Hi Alexandu,</FONT>

&gt; Before calling me a troll that spreads FUD, first read the \
wikipedia definition:
&gt; <A \
HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FUD">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FUD</A> \
&gt; As you saw already, I have good reasons and proofs for my \
statements &gt; (it's fucking obvious).
&gt; It's your turn. Please provide evidence that the ECMA/ISO \
parts are &gt; &quot;royalty free&quot; (legal this \
time) and dump the non-ECMA stacks and then &gt; I will \
bow to you. Also, if such evidence exist please update that &gt; stupid FAQ (it is useless in it's current state).

I'm pretty sure you're not living in the US, so why are you \
whining like an idiot? The European Union (where you \
will someday belong to ;-) doesn't give a shit on \
software patents. Stand up and scream at you corrupt \
politicians, if you have a problem with patents.

&gt; So again, FUCK YOU for trying to poison Linux (or Gnome \
for that &gt; matter). Please remember you don't own it. \
And ... don't worry about &gt; other flames from me ... \
I will unsubscribe.
