  1. Comment - Bill Proposes Ending Free Weather Data

    (Apr 22, 2005 - 10:59 AM)

    This weather information from NOAA is not "free". We pay for it with our taxes. I'm really not interested in paying twice to find out if I need to bring an umbrella with me tomorrow. Ill-informed Senator + Corporate Greed + Technology = Joe Public getting screwed. Enough already!

  2. Comment - Gates Promises Interoperable Software

    (Feb 4, 2005 - 4:56 PM)

    Standards compliance and Open Source software are 2 different things. I believe that difference may be lost on you and Bill. You could have 80,000 variations of UNIX that all support the same file formats. For Bill to make a comment like that about open source is simply laughable coming a from a company that has intentionally broken interoperablity to make more money. Please.
