Hi,

Stop trying to advertise yourself. There are enough idiotic assumptions in your blog to make me think that u are a paid shill for msn or some such. But just to straighten out the first piece of rubbish in your blog, Free software paradigm is far older than Opensource software and closed software. And it did not come "suddenly from nowhere". It began in the early 70s in MIT, started by a genius named Richard M. Stallman. His foundation is built upon work at least a decade older. Most of the software and systems u see around u are essentially derived from the ideas and code pioneered by MIT, Berkley and other universities. Also Transactions that take place in society are too numerous to enumerate. It is sufficient to state that a business transaction is a miniscule portion of these. If it isn't the case with u, please go and see a shrink immediately. The other asinine points are derived from the above and would be a waste of list BW replying.
