PMSL! Now you presume to know who my Hero(s) are?!?

Actually, preceding each phrase with "I can't help wondering..." implies
you have already made some assumptions about him and the group of "Linux
Trolls" you are lumping him in with. This also implies you are speaking
about him too, along with your wording "so many Linux Trolls, such as
yourself,".

Joh N. is but one person. If you are speaking of more than one person, who
are the others?

Yes, Bruce, we know how sure you are of your MicroFUD and your delusional
