Those of you who quickly turned to the issues of DCMA, Copyright law, etc. to
justify the discussion that was in this list about whether or not the United
States was or is a democracy/republic and who represented what, I do not
buy it.  The argument was about something strictly political, and quite
frankly something you should have learned about in social studies.  I have also
heard these arguments and discussion on this list before, and to the same end.

I could make the argument that the contents of my refrigerator has an indirect
affect on the future of Linux, but I doubt that people would want to hear it.

This last letter by Brian was nothing but an advertisement for a political
point of view, had nothing to do with Linux other than his "justification" at
the beginning.

There are many, many newsgroups, mailing lists, etc. where you may argue the
direct and indirect issues of government, where we are in the historical
aspects of government, etc. are going on.  You are all invited to please go
there.

Thanks,
