OOXML continues to be the dirtiest game the standards world has seen in a long, long time.

Yep, Java for Mono, using code Sun wrote. How the world has changed

"I think Sun's name change is more than just playing up Sun's best-known brand. I think it's symbolic of the company's complete transformation from server and workstation OEM to open-source software vendor."

Another life wasted by the ethically corrupt prohibition policy on drugs. You can't control what's illegal, you can only ruin more people's lives.

New down-with-USA links almost daily. What's gotten so far up your craw about America, Mr Phipps? Is there anything you actually like about the States other than your paycheck? How would you like Sun's US customers and potential customers weigh your contempt and anti-American vitriol?

I'm a huge fan of America, actually. That's why I am stunned by the way people like you are neglecting your heritage and civil liberties and instead criticise the people who point them out.
You'll note I am criticising "war on drugs", a policy that has destroyed lives throughout the world including the UK, and not criticising America. I oppose prohibition and support regulation; I do not oppose America, or Australia, or the UK, or any other country where the policy is applied.
The fact you associate it with America suggests you should search your own conscience, Mr Redneck, and think more deeply. Maybe you just discovered a truth about yourself that you've not been admitting?
