I worked with a guy who knew Richard Stallman via the BCS and *loathed* him. The guy claimed that Stallman thought no one should *ever* be paid for writing software, and so was trying to put him (and all programmers) out of work. I recall some "commie pinko"-type remarks. I don't know if Stallman really thinks that way, but I found the guy's venom amusing. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
