Subject: Re: Questions about Symbolics lisp machines From: Erik Naggum <erik@naggum.net> Date: Thu, 28 Mar 2002 18:04:46 GMT Newsgroups: comp.lang.lisp Message-ID: <3226327500923265@naggum.net> * Thomas Bushnell, BSG | As for the giving away of bread, I think I now know where you stand. | Since I devote considerable energy of mine to food pantries and the like, | which do everything they can to give away as much free food as possible, | I guess we just have a different perception on that one. I wonder why you think that kind of world is the world we should all live in and why, as either a premise or a consequence, you think this is "normal". I tend to believe it is a premise to you, not a consequence, but this ties right back to my position that how you look a lot of things in life depends on whether you think you will become one of the "haves" or one of the "have-nots", or associate with which groups. That simple attitude shift may well set the tone for your entire outlook on life. /// -- In a fight against something, the fight has value, victory has none.
