Mr. Gallagher, It is obvious, of course, that you are correct. Mr. Ruby has absolutely no right to write his own software in a way of his choosing and should instead write his software in a way that is more pleasing to you. It is especially insulting that Mr. Ruby has somehow compelled you -- most likely through threat and force -- to use his crappy lying software! Please, continue to insult and attack him until he complies with your ever so reasonable wishes and demands. How dare that lying bastard even dare to suggest that you are being unreasonable! It is simply inconceivable! Your suggestion to include xml comments disparaging Mr. Ruby is an excellent idea! So many normal every day users will see those comments and will know exactly what kind of horrible, terrible person Mr. Ruby is! I suggest that we all do that! Let's also include comments crying out for an end to the war in Iraq also! Perhaps if more people would follow your excellent, well thought out suggestions, the world would be a much better and safer place! I applaud you, Mr. Gallagher, for having the courage to type your righteous email in all uppercase! If only I could be so bold and brave! That Damned Mr. Ruby has to be put in his place! And his damned software must be stopped! How dare he force us all to use his validator! How dare he offer advice on how to improve our feeds! How dare he follow the suggestions of the RSS Boards! How dare he have an opinion! How dare he engage the community in discussion and open source his code so that anyone can participate in the discussion and development of the validator! It is simple unconscionable! We stand by you good Mr. Gallagher! That said, however, those of us on this particular mailing list are likely too idiotic, stupid and small minded to appreciate the true and lasting value of your comments. There are other forums where such kind, constructive, thoughtful, and considerate discussion will likely be received with it's due respect. Here, I am afraid you will only be greeted with sarcasm and disdain! - James Clinton Gallagher wrote: > > > I've tried to be rather respectful but since Sam Ruby insists on responding > disrespectfully as if I have shit for brains I might as well respond in kind > as he (you) have clearly become a lying sack of shit Sam Ruby. > > Stop with your double-talk and bullshit lies. > Stop being a vandal and spray painting the results of my software service > with graffiti. > > Few if anybody is going to care about your fucked up help link which I would > be more than happy to stuff up your pompous ass you stinking rat bastard. > > QUIT MARKING UP MY WORK AND DISPARAGING MY SOFTWARE SERVICES BY INFERENCE, > IMPLICATION AND INNUENDO WHEN THERE IS NOTHING INVALID IN THE XML OR I WILL > BE COMPELLED TO USE XML COMMENTS IN EACH OF THE FEEDS MY SOFTWARE GENERATES > TO DISCLAIM, WARN AND IDENTIFY YOU BY NAME AS A LYING MANIPULATIVE STINKING > POLITICAL RAT BASTARD YOU HAVE BECOME. > > FUCK YOUR HELP LINK. > FUCK YOUR FEEDBACK LINK. > FUCK YOUR GRAFFITI. > FUCK YOUR IDEAS ABOUT ATOM. > AND FUCK YOU TOO. > > LEAVE MY WORK ALONE AND STOP DISPARAGING MY SOFTWARE SERVICES AND DON'T > TOUCH MY WORK WITH YOUR XML VALIDATOR UNLESS THE XML IS **INVALID XML** KEEP > YOUR POLITICS TO YOURSELF OR I WILL SHOVE YOUR POLITICAL BULLSHIT SO FAR UP > YOUR ASS THE ONCE PRESUMED GOOD BUT NOW GOOD FOR SHIT NAME SAM RUBY WILL BE > EVERYWHERE ON THE WEB AND EVERY LISTSERVE AND BLOG I CAN FIND TO WARN > EVERYBODY THAT SAM RUBY HAS BECOME A VANDAL AND A LYING SACK OF POLITICAL > SHIT. > > HOW DARE YOU TRY TO FUCK PEOPLE AROUND WITH YOUR POLITICS. > > YOU GOT THE WRONG GUY THIS TIME.
