Who are we to make judgements about you? We are people in the public who
happen to read 50 some obnoxious messages you post here. And from those
messages we form impressions and opinions about who are you. I'm not one to
make personal attacks, but after reading those messages, the opinions
formed about you are that you are simply an asshole. No, I don't know you.
You're probably a real swell guy. But, sorry, go read your 50
confrontational messages with the world, and maybe you will understand how
you are perceived.

And thanks for posting your resume and life accomplishments. Wow!!! We're
so impressed. I guess that makes you better than 99% of the people out
here, for I'm sure none of the other readers have accomplished anything. We
just all dropped out of high school, work at McDonalds, live at home,
simply downloading Apple games to play. hahahahaah. You're real special.

you're so clever with words.

Okay. You *ARE* one. So? All I said was as a programmer (and from the
experience of most the programmers I work with), I've found most of them
desire that people use and enjoy our work. It's the ultimate reward. Much
like an Artist would hope people look at his paintings, or a writer wants
people to read and discuss his books, even if it is 10 years later and not
for sale anymore. So you can't relate to this. You're in the minority. It
doesn't matter.

Read what you just wrote. You're completely right- It's a choice that the
author/company gets to make. Nobody else. Nobody tells you what to do with
your programs. The ironic thing is, thats exactly what you are trying to do
with all the programs on Asimov. You are trying to control and make the
decisions of the programs on Asimov. As far as I can tell, what happens on
Asimov is of no consequence to you. Perhaps you can better spend your time
on the newsgroups that discuss all the great software that you have
written.

Daily affirmation with Nathan Mates. How sweet. Don't forget, you *ARE* a
programmer, too.
