"The fault in your value system is the chicken vs egg problem...
without human life there'd be no FOSS"

This is logically sound.  Furthermore, didn't ReiserFS exist before
Nina was murder?  If not, nevermind.  If so, how did her murder help
the FOSS community?

MS,

I join you in your fondness of Free Software and I do not feel
compelled to convert you to my value system.  Think what you want.
You felt the need to clarify your comments because others suggested
your comments had a possible misogynistic tone.  I then decided to
inform you that these possible misogynistic implications were not
noticeable in my view.  You posed a question to those disagreeable
with your opinion.   I answered your question with what I found
concerning.  Moreover, your post suggested that a good Linux file
system justified a specific crime.  I am not sure what one has to do
with the other.  Nonetheless, believe what wish.  I simply felt the
need to clarify my observation and to answer your question from my
point of view.

Chris...
