difficult to specify. anger about the stupid scene , about me, about whatever,
i gave up understanding it. Maybe it is also a kind of midlife-crisis. I don't
know. maybe the energy was lost. all gone.

if somebody believes he is better than others, i doubt he will release his
source code so that others can proof him wrong or right. this is IMO to risky,
isn't it. also he could only lose. others would copy his ideas and
he would get nothing in return.

i guess chris is satisfied with the situation as it is.
he can eat his money, count his gold barrels,
see that the people still like CSTal and don't understand it,
and be the angry prophet in the rest of the day.

he concentrates now on life and those 6 children, maybe some of them have now
children too and chris is now grandpa :-)) so he is really old and nobody cares
about him.

i don't know.

whatever.

i tried for a couple of time to understand it.
but then he insulted me so often that i decided that this is uninteresting for
me, so i pruned it away :-)

the friendship ended. with a bitter taste.
it was his decision.
game over.
