MR>you guys are trying to WIN the argument by CHANGING the argument.
MR>i'm not playing that game.

Huh?  Are you claiming you didn't say that "anybody can put any random
code into Linux" (I'm paraphrasing there)?  I didn't change the
argument, I simply said that wasn't true.  There is VERY strict control
on what code gets added/modified in Linux.  Really, it's true.

MR>i'm not going to do homework for you and i'm not here to impress you.

I already know the names, and was using that as a point to help you
understand how Linux development works.  I guess you still don't know.

MR>i think this is the first time i've seen you post as well.

Probably not the first, but what would that matter, anyway?  I recently
got back into calling BBS's and using offline mail.
