We are to love each other with Christ-like love and Christ told us that people will know we are Christians by the love we have for each other. Blowing up abortion clinics or shaming women (and girls) in a tight spot is not how we were told to show witness. Agree 100%.

First I tried just inserting IMs into an sql database and check for new messages with xmlhttprequest, but then I switched to jabber. I have looked a little into the servers ejabberd and jive messenger, I think those are better than jabberd but I’m not sure which ones scales best, although ejabberd should have some clustering support.

The deal with PHP is that companies that are "Enterprise" just can't wrap their heads around the FREE concept. I have had major headaches with clients and attempting to tell them that they could run a web server for FREE with PHP - thus only costing them $1k for a fully set box with my custom app loaded for their envoriment. Numerous this resistance to FREE has cost me hours of learning the code they deem "worthy". Funny how large companies just can't accept free... Now small businesses are another ball game.

It is my favorite book. and it's my opinion, that if you don't understand the philisophical view that rand is espousing by the time you get to the monologue, then you certainly won't understand it here. the question of which philosophy to follow really begs the question. for many of the big questions there will be no final answers this side of the grave and possbily not even there and so we are left with some of this and some of that imperfect philosophies for an imperfect world the big contribution of atlas shrugged and, in my opinion, the biggest demon in american society today is the issue of personal accountability how many of the problems that we face as a nation and as a family and as an individual could we solve if we simply took responsibility for our own actions good and bad as easily as we assign them to others? I’ve read Galt’s monologue many times.

It is my favorite book.

the question of which philosophy to follow really begs the question.

for many of the big questions there will be no final answers this side of the grave and possbily not even there

and so

we are left with
some of this
and some of that
imperfect philosophies for an imperfect world

the big contribution of atlas shrugged
and, in my opinion,
the biggest demon in american society today

is the issue of personal accountability

how many of the problems that we face as a nation and as a family and as an individual
could we solve if we simply

took responsibility for our own actions
good and bad

as easily as we assign them to others?

As you should know, Enterprise means rich and big companies. Money is usually not the main concern for them. As PHP is an open source project, if it happens there are bugs inside their library code which causes huge lost for the enterprise, who can you blame? How do you recover the lost from a community organisation? One of the reason that PHP is not used in enterprise enviroment is that becasue it’s FREE.
