Okay, that's you. Probably there are a few others who look at it the 
same way.

But I happen to believe that there are also more community minded, less 
selfish people around at clr, people who are devoted to the open source 
language they love to develop and use, and who get upset at a regular 
clr participant who is deliberately hurting the image of Ruby.

Call me naive, if you like. I can live with that.
