Sorry for my misunderstanding -- In contrition I'm sending the Free 
Software Foundation a check for ten thousand GNU dollars. As the FSF 
spends and circlulates those GPL'd dollars the World's real property 
will slowly accumulate under the GPL pool and a perfect socialist state 
will arise.

True Heaven on Earth will then perfect. The Sunni will lay down with the 
Shia. Wallace will lay down with Eben and beget many little RMS's and we 
shall all be joyous unto eternity.
