Nice.
But don't count on the utter public destruction of Roy's idiocy being nearly
enough to make him change. James Gosling (of Sun and Java fame) told me
himself in an email that Rex Ballard was a liar that he [Gosling] had never
heard of, yet even after I posted that devastating refutation of his lies,
Rex didn't stop claiming his work was the basis for Java.
The truth isn't nearly enough to keep nutcases like Roy Homer Rex from
spewing their warped lies and misinterpretations of reality.
