im sorry, i fail to see how the two goals are mutually exclusive. as for
political correctness, if that means people wo adhere to common civility
and courtesy, then im all for it. if political correctness is a convenient 
label of denigration for people who prefer the good old days of women 
knowing their place, the kirch, kirke und kinder types, then count me in
as politically correct. i prefer the term humanist and the concept that
it means aware of peoples rights, and respecting of same....

ye gods and little fishes, a spammer lurks! this stuff is akin to
viagra and penis enlargement stuff:)

let me guess - white middle class christian male...:)

ok dude, what ARE you doing on this list besides advertising your dubious
eugenics based services?

seriously, thers a spammers forum you could go and play on no doubt,
masking your intentions by providing limited services to the debian 
community does not make this acceptable behaviour, or even very good
manners.

old days of the 1930s and the procreation of the fit??????

please remove this poor deluded type from supporters page, but post his
email on the humour section:))))) funniest thing i've read all day, what
a hoot!

c'mon, someone is having us on, time to 'fess up and share the laughter,
what a prize joke!!! i'm impressed, using the word intelligence in a
eugenics based email is the giveaway, congrats to the champion
jester!!!!
