[OpenIndiana-discuss] Future of OI

[DormitionSkete@hotmail.com]

I'm probably trolling here, and this is definitely off-topic, but gee -- we have a communist president, who's filled his White House staff with communists... They've been subtly teaching socialism (which is just a stepping stone to communism) in our schools for more than fifty years...  What's the point of excluding these countries?  Why the show?

I've been to the Congo twice -- they're on the list of countries with these export restrictions.  I know they have internet there.  You can be deep, deep, deep in the  jungle there, and still see computers and cell phones.

Very odd.
