[Elecraft] long-haired, dope-smoking, free-software hippie

[Mike Sexsmith]

"""I'm not a long-haired, dope-smoking, free-software hippie so if I have to
spend some money for good software I don't mind. (As a professional
programmer I've never understood why the product of my hard work should be
free when I have to pay for the product of everyone else's work.)"""

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

Craig, Yes, my recommendations are to:

1. Show more discretion about "long hair" comments, a number of folks who 
read this reflector have it and will find your posting offensive...
2. Along with many other software programs Ham Radio Deluxe is a freeware 
product and is an excellent one. Your comment seems disparaging to both 
those who use it, (thousands of folks), and those who choose to provide it 
"free".
3. Perhaps consider an apology of some sort to the reflector?....
