Hi Djordge:
This just to tell how much I despised those guys of Matrix that are so similar
to any band of idiots with a green uniform and hidden in the jungle. As they,
these heroes fight for destroying an order, but without realizing that they, if
succesfull, will give nothing to the rest of the people. Preferable an ilusion
computer-created than the awful world they fought to get back.
