How about: stop trying to spend *my* (non-existent)
money! I haven't spent I dime in five years. I'm not
talking about how to fund the FSF, I'm talking about
how to get those manuals to the library. You are of
course free to discuss FSF and all that but don't tell
me what to buy or download, that I'd appreciate. OK?

read a book and you don't understand it, it isn't
always the book's fault."
