[OFFTOPIC]
Apologies for getting involved in this. I believe Irv interpreted Ralf's
original post as containing an attack on George Bush's support of the death
penalty for murder. After all, even his most fervent opponents (I am one of
them) admits that Mr. Bush does not advocate the death penalty for software
piracy and has not executed anyone for software piracy. So two separate
issues were raised and addressed. Ceratainly someone can believe (as I do)
that both murder and software piracy are wrong without believing that they
are of equal importance. And I really wish this thread would go away--while
software piracy has some relevance to this list, murder and its punishment
are clearly outside isssues better discussed by private email or in other
forums--the net is full of discussions pro and con about the death penalty
and every other contorversial issue, why are we going back and forth about
this?
