And yet still others might be offended that you rub their nose in the
fact that Hotmail is now owned by Microsoft and has gotten rid of or
will soon get rid of all FreeBSD boxes -- certainly, a
disproportionately high number of people who are indignant about that
would be on this list.

And yet still others might be offended by your forceful imposition of
superstition on them. Not everyone takes the Christian Bible
literally, if they even believe in it.

And yet still others might take offense to your narrow-minded
assumption that it was even in reference to anything remotely
religious or anti-religious. Symbols formerly considered 'evil' or
whatever are often used in counterculture -- liking a 'dark-sounding'
band or something doesn't make one Satanic. Alternatively (though not
very likely), maybe he was simply commemorating when Percy Sledge's
"When a Man Loves a Woman" topped the charts, or the first descent of
the "Great West Canyon," or maybe even the Marine Corp's Operation Jay
in Vietnam -- in June of 1966.

The point is that you don't know, you're assuming. That, and that this
whole thing is a stupid tangent. The FAK and mailing list charter and
all that make the point that this is not a tech support forum. Your
problems with any individual here are moot points -- you need to be
somewhere else. So stop being a troll.
