@Rick Moen rick@linuxmafia.com Thanks for posting the original thread. I just noticed that in your first message and it's one of the few links I've seen that at least shows a snippet of the original conversation and sets the context of the conversation that was regurgitated 20 times over by every editorial.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled rants. As you were.

The former is of course true, but nonetheless, as I said, you substantially misrepresented what the man said, and your non-sequitur objection doesn't change that. People sufficiently interested can consult primary sources, which I provided in my original post as part of great care to stick to fair commentary and good information.
His views aren't mine, so I'm not going to detail the places where you got things haplessly wrong in restating his csail-related postings, because the natural result would be that a lot of -other- people would then become a 'Rick Moen said [foo]' ragemob, and I'm just not nearly that stupid.
Whether he was fired on a pretext is not important to me. What's important to me is that he had pulled shit that should have gotten him fired decades back, and I'm delighted that, at long last, he's out.
Without objection, I note that you changed the subject. And I'm _still_ not interested in arguing with you.
