Not Scary, Not Trying to be Scary

But to who?

I am a fairly normal individual, even if my views on technology (that area in particular) diverge somewhat from “the average” (or “norm”) because I am opinionated about Software Freedom. Nothing wrong with diverse perspectives in the planet.

If that sort of divergence is because it is my professional area, then it’s somewhat expected that my views will differ from “unwashed (bombarded by commercial propaganda) masses”.

Last October I spoke to a judge who later said I was courteous. I cannot recall saying anything rude or impolite. I didn’t shout, didn’t curse. I didn’t make “funny faces”.

This was the first time and the last time I saw someone who had sued me. He would no longer show up, even when he was just around the corner (from the courtroom).

Absent an explanation, I’m left to deduce he’s just afraid of facing me or seeing me. That was never my intention.
