OK. GE made a statement he refuses (or is unable) to back up. The burden of proof is on him. If you wish to agree with him, please provide the proof.

I merely said that because IBM provided funding to iBiblio, and iBiblio provides free hosting to Groklaw, does not mean the IBM has editorial input into Groklaw's website.

What I posited was not an accusation, as opposed to GE's assertion. As he made the accusation, it's up to him to prove it.

Do you disagree?

I don't know if IBM donated servers, but if they did it's because they approve of the editorial slant of the site.

If I buy commercial time on Rush Limbaugh's program it doesn't mean I endorce his politics. But if I donate money to NPR without compensation, it is because I approve of their programming.

LOL at you spinning on your head like a top. Disprove either of these statements:

Groklaw runs on servers donated by IBM

IBM donated the hardware that is used to run Groklaw


I submit the article in Forbes magazine as evidence. Now what do you have other than more foaming at the mouth?
