Lukas,
Let me be the first to say, thank you for such an objective,
dispassionate analysis of the pros and cons of Stan's suggestion.
I'm so glad that I've chosen to invest in a language that is developed
and maintained by reasonable people who can come together and have a
productive discussion about issues, without devolving into ignorant,
wasteful politics.
Thanks, and have a nice day!

Oh, I almost forgot.... </sarcasm>
P.S. The real problem with this list is not the clueless idiots who
post their clueless rants. The problem is the people who actually
give said clueless idiots the time of day by actually responding to
said rants.
I was shocked and horrified that that ridiculous "remove-the-$" post
actually turned into a legitimate discussion. I mean, seriously?
P.P.S. Greg -- from myself and everyone I know who follows internals
(or tries not to), I want to extend a sincere and heartfelt thanks for
the hard work, dedication and most of all patience that you've put
into actually pushing productive discussion forward.
