What people went through during the Depression is tragic, and Coolidge is the guy, after all, who was president when it happened because when government does nothing, people suffer terribly, because greed is not good. Heartlessness has real-world effects on real people who suffer in real ways. And they really did. Such letters!

Tech post, huh? Blech!

How could Novell enter into such a deal? Then top it off with selling 882 patents to a Microsoft-organized consortium?

Because Novell is a company that was defending its own interests, not going on a crusade to support free software. Its interests at that time simply had aligned with the interests of the free software movement.

I guess one has to be up to speed on the issue before fully understanding this liberal rant.

Does anyone want to summarize this into something we can understand?
