As proof, consider this: in virtually every episode of Star Trek the bad guys, often aliens who have never encountered humans before, manage to gain control of Enterprise's computers and take over the ship. The conclusion is obvious: Star Fleet buys its software from Microsoft. No other vendor could possibly sell software with so many bugs and security holes. -- I do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance.
