[Ti] Signature Offence > Macs are slower?

[illovox at comcast.net]

So you say...want to advocate censorship--join a listserve in N. Korea. Your
arguments are either erroneous (history lesson indeed--anti-semitism, Vischy
government, etc. etc.) or emotional argumentum ad hominem.  For all you know
the poster is WWII vet who had to deal with the Vischy gov't, but that's as
irrelevant as your arguments.  Bottom line:  It's his sig.  Keep your paws
off his sig.

And to get us back on topic:  Very cool article:

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
