I just wasn't going to bother presenting it to someone who is clearly incapable of recognizing its worth. I was going for names that would mean something to corporate wonk-types (who think "serious" work can only be done using software with exorbitant price tags and per user licensing) and would dispel the myth that free software is crap written by incompetent hacks. Heck, some people get paid well by their employers to contribute code to open-source projects. Some of the most sought out commercial programs were (and are) built on the of back open-source "crap" written by clearly incompetent hacks.

But our friend knows this, and is clearly just seeking a fight.
