Wow. Just how short is your memory?

Writing "the head-up-the-ass attitude of Lucent and their
licenses", "Just another example of why you guys are lost in the
ozone", "You're clearly too complacent from getting your own way
all the time", and quoting "Never ascribe to malice what can be
better explained by incompetence or ignorance" are examples from
the past three days when you've been calling people all sorts of
things, explicitly or implicitly.

And as for you accusing people on this list for not getting their
facts straight, I refer you to Russ' response to your ridiculous
"I -do- take -great- exception to the attitude of these same
people that Plan 9 should be limited to 'research' applications"
statement.

You didn't when this whole argument started. Go back and check
the archives if you can't remeber that far back in time.
