I agree. It also helps if you trim off people's original mails, and not
top-post, but I am sure you knew that.

I haven't met Sandip for at least 3 years, but I would not characterise him
as "non Linux non technical". I have always found his posts to be
well-reasoned and well-written, something that helps to raise the value of
the message. I am not aware of how much he has contributed to the kernel.

This is a badly phrased question, in respect to the "or". Example:
Are you going to gift me $100? or do you support bride-burning?
The "or" seems to link them as direct alternatives, which they are not. Do
you still beat your wife?

True. I don't recall him asking for money, or advertising a commercial
hotline, however.

It helps a discussion no end if I do not read implicit meanings into other's
posts, and do not attribute motives or hidden agenda.
YMMV
