Gabe,
Don't be fooled by Santosh's long correction of Mario's citation of John
Stuart Mill. Mario, accurately it appears, obtained his quote from
Wikipedia whereas Santosh has been a little sloppy with his attribution
of sources.
Santosh's claim that Wikipedia has already provided a correct
or a gross exaggeration. The motives behind his
baseless attacks should be quite obvious to those of
you who have some knowledge about his petty grudges
and disappointments on this list and on GX.
Cheers,
Santosh
