More on the Conflict of Interest
--------------------------------
Recently, in light of the ensueing processes which are
deteremined to their rightness, I have been working on the
projects that make my financial and professional interest.
In short, I don't have time for petty in-fighting.
I did not (and have not had) time to read the thread
which mentioned the "non-merger" of the *bsd interests. So,
comments by me at this time are without reflection on
all the present facts. Also, e-mail to me about the "moderator
please resign, BS" is sitting in my in-box, and will not be answer
until after "The Great Debate".
I am aware that at times some of my comments seemed a bit of
line, but without all the facts it is just that (a seemingly
out-of-line-comment). I really don't have time to play the games
that people like T. Deradt want to play. Comment about
"net-bag-lady", "mentally-unstable", "politically-uncorrect"
and "non-net-equitte" are plain bull, a waste of my time and
show a great deal of unprofessionalisim by those involved.
In addition, language of vulgar context is not appreciated in
my "mbox". In short, expect a harsher treatment by me to you
(that take on these tactics).
I will still be continuing with this newsgroup, but I must
for the sake of the moronic-unstable-childish-pathetic-
pre-adolescent-wannabes with dillusion of being the next Bill
Gates take on new tactics:
1) Don't expect fairings.
2) If confused read #1.
3) If you can't find a rule to apply read rule #1.
4) If you work for BSDI, USL, Novell or UUNET read
rule #1.
5) If you want me to play by *your* rules read rule #1.
6) If you want to reason with me, then send reasonable
mail else read rule #1.
7) If you've got a problem with my attitude or the
way I say things read rule #1.
8) If you are going to mail me a nasty "this posting
is just your way of proving your a XXX" read rule #1.
9) If you expect that I will do less on the account of
a handful of wannabes, read rule #1.
10) In case of any confusion, all the above tactics only
apply to the moronic-unstable-childish-pathetic-
pre-adolescent-wannabes with dillusion of being the
next Bill Gates.
11) This is a paranoid fantasy; have fun with it;
read rule #1.

I was confused. I read #1. I finally got it - you're a fellow
motorcycle rider, winter is approaching, and you're exhorting us all
not to expect fairings! Sound advice too, should you happen to borrow
or rent someone else's motorcycle and be suddenly faced with a long,
cold ride without the benefit of any kind of wind protection.
[ Lots more rules deleted, all referring back to the rule
about not expecting wind-chill protection ]
Sound advice here. Remember, a good pair of gloves (leather, not
wool! Wool may look warm but does nothing to keep the wind out!), a
thick muffler and a thick padded jacket will save you from looking
like Frozen-zombie-from-beyond-the-grave-man when you dismount your
trusty steed 50 miles later and find that you're barely unable to
detach your frozen fingers from the throttle.
Weather may turn cold, and long distance winter motorcycle commutes
may continue unabated, but of those of us who take sound advice of
Jesus to heart, many are cold but few are frozen.
