To change the tune (but not the gist) of the hysterics of a
pseudonymous well-known troll?  Come off it.  Of course you would give
damn about the veracity of any source, including RMS himself.  Karl is
the president of probably the largest international user group for a
particular piece of free software (TeX).  Only a lunatic would think
he'd impersonate RMS.  But you are a self-proclaimed lunatic, anyway,
as expressed in your pseudonym behind which you hide.

Why should anybody bother about the insinuations of a troll?
