Re: [9fans] Sponsoring a new Intro book by the Flan 9 Poundationy

adr, you seem overly invested only judging from the amount of text,
where you counter politics, with more politics, and shitty extremely
uninformed rhetorics.

contrary to your claims, mycroftiv has always stood by his opinions
(which often differed from mine) and always backed everything up with
good reason. his reasoning is actually sound.

mycroftiv has been keeping on dialog for a long time, for everybody
who was actually interested.

he is also presenting this opinion in some rare emails to bigger
public like 9fans. i think this is meant to be an invitation for
further discourse, as it's never quite overwhelming, not like the
constant flooding of shitty bots on this list.

it's also quite believable that he is *overly* concerned about the
reaction on here, which might make it very hard to say anything at all
(unlike me who doesn't care about my appearance anywhere). by contrast
of our very unalike personalities i seem to relate, much better than
you can, with what is nearly my opposite.

maybe what you (cowardly) are trying to express is that mycroftiv is a
troll? well i might be, he certainly is not. there is never any
*trickery* in his arguments. not much *playing around* with people.
don't mistake openness, and possible illnesses, with trolling, or markov chains.
