The irony, of course, is that those who made up the Communist party and
the governmental elite are those who in a capitalist society would
probably be the business leaders -- the ambitious, upwardly mobile with
a desire to get ahead.

The only significant difference between Nazism and Communism is that
the Nazis kill the poor first, and the Communists kill the rich first.
How else would you account for the fact that Hitler and Stalin EACH
emulated oppressive laws and regulations introduced by the other.

That's a very vague question; how am I supposed to answer it? :-)
But it can lead to interesting discussions.

>Open Source is developing??
I'm not sure about Darwin's theory; one might be able to perform
a mapping between software "memes" (ideas, such as a spreadsheet,
a video player, a better utility to display contents of a directory,
etc.) and organisms/populations such as E. Coli, turtles, penguins,
humpback whales, seagulls, etc. in a niche, and suggest that those
software memes which are the most interesting prosper and mutate
(since everyone will contribute to them, patch them, add capabilities
to them) and the less interesting ones stagnate, and may eventually
die (be lost to the world). Competition occasionally breaks out
(KDE vs. Gnome, CORBA vs. COM, OpenDoc vs. OLE, etc.) and the
more interesting/useful/available/etc. one wins. Maybe.
This isn't quite like classical evolution admittedly, where the
rate of mutation is relatively constant (except near uranium
mines and such). I don't know enough theory to be sure, admittedly
(my understanding is that there are scientists/mathematicians out there
who know the mutation rate and can make interesting predictions).
Just to make things even more interesting: there is a theoretical
branch of computer software development -- and it may already be
deployed -- which uses the very mechanism of evolution to find
an efficient problem-solver; it links the ability to solve a
particular problem with the survivability of the organism, and
throws in random mutation of codes; those that get too bloated
die off. A variant of the old game "Corewars", in a sense -- but
far more useful.
There is another branch which uses DNA replication to construct a
massively parallel quasi-computer in a test tube; I don't know
the details, but the quasi-computer is fed, then analyzed for the
solution. At some point, we may be developing using test tubes and
machine-controlled incubators rather than transistors and switches. :-)
A third branch doesn't have to do with evolution at all, but may
use light quanta for even more massively parallel computation.
Development of this platform is probably decades off, but the idea
is intriguing, and a bit scary for those of us developing cryptographic
protections -- if this ever comes to fruition, the NSA will most
likely be intensely interested in developing a machine which can
handle thousands of qbits. (1 qbit = 1 conventional bit except it
can hold both states at once, in accordance with quantum theory [*];
current state of the art can handle about 4 or 5 qbits, I think.
However, I'm not involved with the research myself.) Note that
commercial-grade encryption is currently 128 bits; if one were to
try to find a key using current brute-force methods, the universe would
probably die first. (5*10^10 years = 1.578*10^18 seconds
= 1.369 * 2^60 seconds; we'd need something vibrating at
2^68 Hz = 3 * 10^20 Hz ; light vibrates from 300 to 700 nm, or
4.3*10^14 Hz to 10^15 Hz. For comparison, AM radio stations are at
5.60*10^5Hz to 1.600*10^6Hz, and FM are 8.8*10^7 Hz to 1.08*10^8 Hz;
current computers are at 1.4*10^9 Hz. I don't know offhand what the
most energetic quanta vibrate at; presumably, some nuclear reaction, maybe
the fusion of 4 H to 1 He, might throw out something interesting. :-) )
Military-grade encryption may use 1,024 bits, or even more; note
that adding a bit doubles the size of the problem in conventional
computing, all other things being equal (e.g., not being able to
exploit a weakness in the implementation).
And then there's the issue of resurrecting old software from backups
and reworking it, if someone's interested. One might liken this
to warming a frozen embryo, with the addition that software is
far easier to clone than an animal, although it may depend on the
software's complexity ("hello world" versus a complex operating
system such as Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, or Windows NT) and how
well it was documented.

I think you mean "advance", but you're welcome. :-)
[.sigsnip]
[*] Quantum mechanics is actually rather interesting; the math gets
hairy fairly quickly -- but the basic idea is simple enough.
A particle can have all possible states until it interacts with
another particle; at that point, the two particles change state
in a predetermined manner. Some wacky things (wacky to us,
that is; we're not used to this) can happen with this theory;
for example, two identical particles could exchange state with each
other (there's already been an experiment that uses this property,
if memory serves). Another derivative is that light can behave
both as a particle and a wave -- and so can electrons and even atoms!
QM can explain both the photoelectric effect and the dual-slit
electron experiment. There's even a relativistic variant
of Schroedinger's equation, for those that need it (as if the
standard one isn't bad enough :-) ).

It couldn't be that Communism concentrates ALL the power in one place.
And...as we know...power attracts the corrupt, and absolute power
attracts the absolutely corrupt.

At the time I didn't know about assemblers nor had the ability to code one
myself. So, I was limited by only my abilities at the time. At the time, I
coded machine language by coding in BASIC with the pokes to load the routine
and then turn on the routine at the end of the programme. It was certainly a
crude method but it did work. Had I continued, I would have used the BASIC as
the assembler as I started to do at the time by remembering all the op codes
by their decimal number.
But despite my limited abilities at the time, it shows that on the Commodore
it was fully possible to code a TSR becuse the interrupt was documented in the
programmer's reference guide. On the PC, the same thing is not so easy. The
stuff in DOS's kernel is a secret held by Microshit. TSR coders have to crack
the kernel to code one now.
With Linux, however, coding a daemon is easy as everything is documented in
some way shape or form. A crude method is to make an account to run it and
give it sudo root permission to run the device in question. Can't do that on
DOS.

Singapore was quite the benign dictatorship. The economic freedom
