I think we all need to take a chill pill and enjoy what is really just a piece of satire, intended not for self-aggrandizing but to make people laugh. Ever read User Friendly? Is Iliad bad for making fun of Microsoft? He did a hilarious parody of Star Wars with Tux as one of the heroes and the Death Orb being Microsoft's coroporate HQ.

People..get a clue. I don't *know* ESR, but I have met him. He is warm, witty and passionate about Linux, open software and other geeky things. I don't happen to share his love of firearms, but then again I don't have any right to judge him about it either.

It's his choice to write these pieces, and your choice to read it or not. It is his right to be able to express himself as he so desires as long as he harms no one. On the other hand, you have NO right to expect him to make you happy or agree with you.

Happy New Year to all of you, including the MSCEs out there. It's going to be a wild year for us geeks so put on your seat belt...

ESR, thanks for you sharing your gift of words and IMHO funny sense of humor!
