   I think the war over vi and emacs is more sane.

     Sure, why make people have to live in the deserts of Africa to make
     them
     live in the equivalent of a 3rd world country. Just cut off their
     food
     and water until they do what you want.
     As time goes on, I realize more and more how inhumane some people
     who
     are driven by religious beliefs can be (and it bears little relation
     to
     which religion they follow).
     Can this thread die yet? It's about as enjoyable as watching a
     religious war over vi vs emacs.
