    I run across trolls like this on FreeRepublic all the time. Usually doesn't
    take
    much to out them for what they are when new ones come along. Lack of ability
    to
    think seems mandatory, followed by a lack of ability to consider or answer to
    any real fact. One discussion the other day lamented the idea that Linux
    could be
    "given" to the Chinese and that this was a national security threat. He
    wasn't pleased to be reminded that MS's negotiator took time off his vacation
    to try and save negotiations for the MS platform sell to the Chinese only to
    be turned away
    and rejected. Somehow, that must have just smarted a little too much.

    A friend reminded me that the only piece of truly original code produced by MS
    was and is to this day, Bob. Anyone seen Bob lately? My new favorite thing
    to do
    is to ask these guys how Bob is doing. Cause I think they're probably the
    only ones who were stupid enough to buy it. And for sake of argument, I was
    advised that Bob kinda very much looks like "Kid's Desk".. Arsinio is doin his
    thing (hmmm).
    LOL.
