well let's ignore your dementia and paranoia for a moment. Making a KDE
Distribution doesn't work because you can't just slap it into any old Linux
Distribution and have it work. I'm not going to get into any of my
business with you because you have your mind made up about what it is and
come hell or high water you won't let facts interfere with that
viewpoint. So if you'd like to keep up your groundless attacks and
accusations, please feel free to do it via private email, or even call me
on the phone, I'd be delighted to talk to you.
