Again your feeble attempt to constantly project of your own character

flaws on others gives you away as the mentally disturbed loser you

are. I can imagine a lot of people seeing YOU Frankie numbnuts as a

drooling dog as in Pavlov's experiments.

I thing Vista best suits are current needs. Got a problem with that?

Oh and why would I need to use OE/WM just because they come with XP/Vista?

I'm not a fanatic like you are. I'm not devoted to any fanatical

software religious movement like you are.

I thing? Are needs? Damn man learn how to spell at least at the 4th

grade level!

Craziest statement Frankie said yet:

"I'm not devoted to any fanatical software religious movement like you

No? Then why do you worship Microsoft and make an ass of yourself in

this newsgroup every day?

Excuse me, but how smart can you be Frankie if you don't know the

Now I understand. If I use Open Source software, it's "open sores" and

if you use Open Source software, it's because you have free will and

it's find and dandy. Thanks for clearing that up.

Not at all. Your stance is crystal clear. I you use Open Source, it's

all right. If a Linux user uses Open Source, you lie about them, insult

them, bluster all over the place and use derogatory terms like "open sores".

"Open sores" is deservedly off handed reference to a fanatical movement

and people like you who are religiously fanatical about open source

software.

It is a cause and a movement lead by RS and others and you are one of

it's followers.

It is your choice so just live with it!

While, unlike you, I don't believe in a non existent god, it doesn't

mean I don't have a religion and I can assure you that not only is my

religion hundreds of years older than Christianity but it has nothing to

do with computers, much less operating systems. I only promote Ubuntu

because I like it and feel others may be tired of the "anti piracy"

crap, viruses, trojans, root kits and other malware that invade Windows

boxes. It is not a faith thing but based on empirical reality.

BTW, I am getting LOADS of emails from people who read this newsgroup

asking about Ubuntu. I wonder why?

Nope. It's because they are sick and tired of Vista and XP's "anti

piracy" crap, viruses, malware, root kits, etc. Reading comprehension

I think she was trying to say, those things are not important to her or her

life. In her reality the world has ups and downs and valleys. On the grander

scale, from orbit, the world may well be a globe, but in her life what she

is going to feed her kids is the reality. Her eyes look upon what is before

her and what she can do, not on the horizon which she can do nothing about.

Heh. Once a person from the USA posted that he thought that Madrid,

Spain is an island. What's happened to the education in the USA? It

And you know where I got my education? Oh, please, do tell us how you do

that.

BTW, both Republican and Democrats are wooing ex pats overseas for money

so I guess that throws your lame argument that all ex pats must be

running from the law out the proverbial Windows.

Perhaps you're right that's not important to her, but that doesn't excuse

the fact that she didn't know whether or not the Earth is flat or round.

I'm pretty sure that type of information falls under the common knowledge

category, or at the very least someone with a couple of levels of education

in grade school.

No kidding, one even became president. Bush once thought Europe was a

country and didn't know Brazil has "black" people.

I think you missed the point. She was speaking experientially, not

scientifically. I.e. she was communicating that her "knowledge" of the

world - what she viscerally experiences of the world - she wouldn't describe

as 'a globe', rather 'how do do I get food for my kids today'. Although I

cannot substantiate it, I would venture confidently nevertheless, she is

well aware that, from orbit, the earth constitutes a globe.
