I mentioned that OpenBSD has a policy of not starting services by
default.  Ethan Benson went off on how OpenBSD is "rubbish".  As
an OpenBSD user, I felt I should point out that he was the one
full of rubbish.  I really don't care whether people think it's
a good idea or not.  I just wish they'd discuss the issue I'm talking
about.  I mean really, Ethan claimed I never installed OpenBSD.  How
could he have ever known whether or not that is true?  Someone called 
ME a troll!?!?!?!?!
