   Honestly, I don't think that Paul's comments were intended to be as   
   harsh as you've apparently been taking them.  He's downunder.

   So, Scott, are you working on your own OS?  I apparently missed   
   your mention of it.  So, what are you planning to do?  You're here for   
   a good reason, right?   
      
      
   Personally, I'm in the world of EXT4 and BIOS and 64-bit (Linux).   
   Although, I'm still in the world of FAT and BIOS and 32-bit (MS-DOS).   
   No UEFI, yet though, which will be a total mess if there is no BIOS   
   support anymore via CSM.  I'd doubt that most others here have moved to   
   UEFI, as you're about the only one who mentions it.  As for S/370, I   
   have no idea what that is, other than it's IBM.  As for PDOS, I know   
   it's a DOS-like OS that Paul has been working on for a long time,   
   off-and-on again.  Nothing wrong with that, IMO.  It's a personal and   
   intellectual challenge.  Other people have golf.   
      
      
   I do understand your perspective.  Tool did say in their song A-Enema   
   (AEnema), "Yeah, f--k retro anything," ... as well as wishing that the   
   "hopeless f--king hole" called Los Angeles would be flushed out (via an   
   implicit enema) into the Arizona Bay (the sea water offshore of Arizona   
   once California sinks) via an AEnima (with 'i' not 'e') event which is   
   an apocalyptic event of sinking underwater like Atlantis, and also the   
   name of their album.   
      
      
   We - the rest of us, the 49% of America not dumb enough to put an   
   incompetent vegetable and radical Muslim terrorist into the White House   
   - can solidly say the same, "flush it all away", but about the whole of   
   California, and it's radically politically biased socialist government   
   and it's overbearing paternalistic censorial suppressive tech   
   companies, can't we?  They don't represent America or it's values, just   
   a very, very limited subset of American values, but act as if everyone   
   else should obey them and their misguided beliefs ...  Bigots.
