And I couldn't disagree more with the above statement. When Microsoft condemns
the GPL, it's the pot calling the kettle black when in fact both are black.

Both Microsoft and the FSF have expressed explicit desires for world domination.
Both seek to destroy worthy companies and hurt innovative developers via predatory 
practices.

I don't know about you, but I believe that world domination by EITHER of them
would be a terrible thing! We have to point out that there is a third and better
way.
