Dear Jonas, I have been avoiding to answer to your indignant remarks. Your prejudice has transformed into a vendetta, of sorts. The problem is that you don't want to contribute money; and that is fine, so long as you don't try to hide behind some drummed-up demagogy. Your contributions and participation in the CCC was not hampered by the existence of the CTF up until now. If it was "a matter a principle", as you seem to want everyone here to believe, you wouldn't have stayed here and read and donated your _time_ to a place (CCC), which is associated with this despicable CTF. Yet here you are and you have been here for a while, haven't you? While your dislike towards CTF may be well founded, your demands and actions, or lack there of, are not. Jonas, respectfully, please stop with the gibberish. Regards, Hristo
