Makes sense that he would make       Fuentes look like a wonderful guy.              To me, that does not matter because without your links, I'd never look       up information about him or any other politician. Wiki is useful when       looking for information on the Grand Canyon or how some whisky is made.              I dislike Musk so when I saw what he was doing, it was an incentive to       donate more than usual to Wiki.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
