As numerous people have already pointed out, this discussion has no
place on Foundation-l—in fact, nearly every reply has said as much.
No productive discussion on the topic has arisen in the 48 hours the
thread's been active, and it's officially become a nuisance.

Sorry, Steven—you'll have to find another forum for promoting your agenda.
