Re: OT: Terror attack - can americans cope with the truth ?

[L.D. Best]

Bernie,

I don't think what Bill has done is adequate, considering ... however,
he sponsors about $1,000,000 in scholarships every year, he has pledged
tens of millions to other types of charities -- and is paying it as
pledged, etc etc etc   (After all, if he were a country, he'd be the 
4th richest country in the world.)

It is because of the good press Gates can buy that the Congress and 
the court system continue to let him get away with murder -- murder 
of companies, concepts, free market, etc.

That is what I was speaking of ...

However, there is additional that you brought to mind:  In the eyes of
the ignorant of the world, Bill Gates and Microsoft are responsible for
what the internet has become, WWW, and all the "good things we can now
do with computers."  

Just because I don't agree doesn't mean that the feeling isn't there.
