I know but just think how the site wiould handle this sorta message.
they'd rant on about it being proaganda just like she beleived that the server
she was using was an MS one not *nix server.
Quoting Carl Cerecke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
ShellyTheRepublican is a spoof site making fun of extreme views in the
republican party.
Cheers,

Shame on you....
Now that it's released and is under the MS umbrella *nix won't be such a
communist thing anymore, ShelleytheRepublican won't be able to bang on any
more unless she desides that the OSS staff that have been brought
into MS have
hypontised everyone at Redmond and have implanted the idea of *nix being a
good thing - then she'll really be up in arms.
OR maybe in 10 years from now she'll be claiming that MS developed *nix and
linux is just an off shoot ...
God think of the arguements that'll arise from what i've just said.
Hay maybe we could do a spoof by claiming that MS has been sponsoring Linux
for years and have now come out of the closset with the new product.
