		<description>Charlie,

EVERYBODY knows that.  Because you mention it in almost every thread you pollute.

That&#039;s why it was in &quot;QUOTES&quot; dumbass.</description>

		<description>Kai,

This guy is everywhere, and always with the same arguments.  Trust me, Charlie&#039;s relationship with &quot;original analysis&quot; and &quot;critical thinking&quot; makes the union of Jon and Kate look like it was built on bedrock.  He goes from blog to blog, reads the title or the first sentence, and if it fits one of his programmed &quot;topics&quot; he spews forth a prepared cut/paste job of links and half-assed arguments to defend the &quot;motherland.&quot;  

Generally speaking, as with a drunk baby, it&#039;s often rather disturbingly funny in its own special way.</description>

		<description>Interesting, this guy is on CNR also...with the same arguments. 

Green Dam is censorship when its user is under one impression about what it will do and it does something else. In this case, Green Dam is touted as anti-vulgar content, but it also conveniently filters out political content or other non-vulgar content deemed objectionable by the censor (the government). 

Just because you can uninstall it or hack it doesn&#039;t mean it wasn&#039;t software that engaged in censorship, just as not going online in China doesn&#039;t mean the internet isn&#039;t censored in China. 

Charles, your argument is flimsy and it may rest in your understanding of what &quot;censorship&quot; means. Look it up. Easy way: go to Google, type &quot;define: censorship&quot; and tap &quot;enter&quot;.</description>

		<description>You seem like a smart guy, so I&#039;ll let you figure that one out for yourself.  But it&#039;s fair to say that I have little patience for either the chronically disingenuous or the willfully naive.</description>
