> no, and if you think so, you have no idea of what revolution is. Agreed. But lets not wait for the time when one has to do all those inhuman things, making the oppressed and the oppressors look the same color of blood red. Artificial shortages of the tools and methods (read as markets, finance, skill, etc) for work is one reason for much of the farmers (and others) misery. Making a meaningful contribution to change immediately the situtations you point out may not be within the ambit of this list's skills. But unlocking hardware and software is one area that will impact everyone greatly, as these (hopefully) become tools of the 99million who barely exist. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
