Q. Why does noone write free software without getting payed for it?

A.  Because... oh wait, they do.  Ever occur to you that money isn't the
only motivation for things in life?  It might be for your shallow,
materialistic self, but it isn't for all of us.

You could try backing up at least a single one of your facts next time.
For example, google for "Sweden university research" and you might
realise how blatantly false your clever little loaded questions are.
Then, you don't look like an idiot, and the rest of us don't have to
listen to such nonsense.  It's a win-win!

Also notice one of the results on the first page of the above mentioned
googling is a breakthrough in cancer research.  Looks an awful lot like
they have doctors there.. and heck, they're even working!

Q. Why should I have to listen to some idiot who thinks stating lies in
a smartass question-answer form makes him right?

A.  I shouldn't.
