@glynmoody,I've been frustrated for a decade:proponents of other social justice causes often scoff at software freedom;Never seems to change

@freemjd,I don't agree wrt software freedom. IMO communism is an appropriate response to the industrial revolution,not the technological one

@bkuhn Also, I like the recycling analogy. I might have to use that.

@bkuhn I like the #IWW concept "forming the new society within the shell of the old". Free sw facilitates that IMO. http://ur1.ca/5vl3n

how many of y'all concerned @ freedom have offered to lend a hand? If all tools needed to pass a libre purity test, nothing would get done.
