1.  Please use linebreaks at 80 columns in your posts to the list.
2.  As I pretty much stated before, keep this content off this list.

But you can keep it to yourself on this list.  I am not the listkeeper, but
I think I speak for many people here when I say that such content does not
belong here.  You are attacking many people on the list by calling their
mindset moronic, and I would like to compliment those who responded to you
for not responding in kind.

In case I was not clear, Unix-bashing -- indeed, any general OS advocacy --
does not belong on this list.  An intelligent and reasoned discussion of
Unix vs. Mac OS as a platform for developing or deploying Perl is on-topic
for this list.  Ad hominem attacks of list members is not.  So please, go
away, or change your tone and your topic.
