<OT> I can agree with you that USA may not be the best example of democracy at the moment. Also, my background is not US democracy :-) . But I do still believe that democracy is the lesser evil of the governing forms we have today... And for this, a truly free press (not more or less free and not ruled by the need to sell paper copies) is vital. Actually, we are all better off with a free press. Regarding piracy: Is it not better to use a free version than use a pirated version? </OT> -- Regards, Oceanwatcher ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
