Adebayo Omo-Dare asserts : "Here too, I care little about nationalistic assumptions and more about the nature of individuals and their behavior with regards to their circumstance and their pursuits. "

From your previous posts, its quite clear you don't really care that much for sick or dying children in Africa.
Left to you and your pen source/Linux fanatics, you'd give a Linux CD-ROM to every dying child in Africa, so they can proudly die giving the finger to Bill Gates, right?
