    Obligatory editor war

    My vote goes to Leonard Downie, Jr. Each and every issue of the Washington Post is a beautiful, finely crafted masterpiece. Hats off to Leonard Downie, Jr... I for one salute you.

    I had to go with Bob Guccione. He's just so swarthy.
    Liberty not only means that the individual has both the opportunity and the burden of choice;
    it also means that he must bear the consequences of his actions.
    Liberty and responsibility are inseparable.

          I like it because when I started my trek with computers back in '80, Wordstar on CP/M systems wa sthe bombdiggity yo.

          vi is annoying, and emacs is, well, emacs. Pico is for the retarded (thanks Krys) and it forces line wrap when you save which can fuck shit up (brought teh dot com I worked for to a grinding hault when some moron edited teh parse queue with pico).

          It's all about joe

            Never...and I mean NEVER dis Pico. I haven't banned a fellow goon yet but you'd best tread lightly mister :D

            Seriously though...I have victimized myself with the Pico line wrap problem before (inetd.conf...and you know what happens when you have one fucked up line in the inetd.conf? the inetd won't start at all...bad scene). I still dig pico though.

            I CAN use vi...I choose NOT to use vi.
