		vinhboy on April 10, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Knuth: Open Letter to Condoleezza Rice (2002) I like your quote. It reminds me of a buddy of mine who says I am a hypocrite for buying local fruits and vegetable, because I buy toilet paper made by a Koch-owned company. For some people, unless you live in a cave and refuse all modern technology, you are not allowed to have any moral authority.

They've decided that the effort is futile, so why can't you?
