Re: [PHP] Re: [users@httpd] November 2, 2004
You forgot the members from the ~74 other countries subscribed to this list. We have absolutely no interest in American politics, and def did not signup to this list to participate in same. Just because my server is in Utah, doesn't mean I'm USAnian or really care about the next incompetent corruptee to become president. Flame away, but do it offlist.

I know it might seem hypocritical of me to state this, since this is in itself a reply to an off-topic post, but I do so in hopes that everyone on this list will follow my lead and NOT reply to any more of these plebian rantings about other countries' (or, if you're an American citizen, your country's) elections (or other blatantly OT posts, for that matter). If nobody replies to these stupid posts, then they will just go away. It's like the Simpsons' Halloween Special piece where all the advertising billboard characters come alive and run amuck in Springfield, and the marketing company that created them tells Lisa that people must stop paying attention to them to make them go away. If people don't look at them, they will go away. Simple as that. If you nobody replies to OT posts, they will go away. Once again the Simpsons' shows us the way... Just my $0.02 (CDN).

The problem is the message was posted to like 9 mailing lists, his personal friends etc... no matter if the message was ontopic, you simply dont do that.

Realy? Unlikely. Maybe you should send your 'useful' info on > a national mailinglist only. well, surely its spam ... BUT: i personally think its okay to talk about such offtopics when they're so generally important. On 9/11 we got the longest thread in the german PHP list we ever had ... The current election is probably as important as 9/11, becaus US citizens have to decide whether they still want an administration which blocked any attemt to prevent the attack on WTC and misused the losses to make US ready for imperialistic wars - as well as their ancestors did with Pearl Habour - and attacks one country after another, brings destruction, dead an poverty to millions of people. The american citizens have to decide whether they still want an administration which delcared the European countries as supporters of terrorism, negated almost every important international contract (i.e. Kyoto protocol), impersonates aggressiv religious fundamentalism, threatened to invade in Den Haag, sends US people to death. They also have to decide if they still want an administration which is responsible for the destruction of the public health insurance, is responsible for extremly high prices and costs of living, loss of thousands over thousands of jobs, decay of public education and strong growing poverty. I personally don't really see any major difference between the chimp and /bin/.laden ... for me both are fanatic religous killers. So my credo is: Bush for prison, Kerry for president! I really, really hope that the US people make a good decicion for peace, cultural respect and democracy. But I'm not too optimistic that Kerry has an good chance, as long as US are lacking of fair elections - in regions where Diebel voting machines are used, the chimp will win. The chimp won the last election by election fraud and I'm really afraid that this will happen again.
