Making self-serving claims that one is only working for the good of the
net, while in fact working only for one's own self-interest, is in poor taste
(it is a lie).

Offering the refutation one's self so quickly is also stoopid(TM).

But my prediction:  once again, the criticism of Brad and "Looking Out For
Number One Software" is going to be so extreme that he will look reasonable
by comparison.  Happens every time...
