[Bjorn Simonsen]

Here I spent all kinds of serious energy calculating strategy,
conducted an emergency conference call with top generals, worked
out complete preparations to rush in...and save the honor of GAG.

Still something left for you to do, say like nominate it
Or maybe you are here for the occasional cat-and-dog-fight only?

All the best,
Bjorn Simonsen

err, <http://www.transcend.org/>

Ah, the Peace folks wouldn't let me in the front door, what with
all the little skirmishes I regularly get into. Oh and they'd
totally rush to bolt up their locks, if given glimpse of some of
the Dostoevskian [*] scenes from my youth. 8-o

You know, I also visited that first URL. That is THE IDEAL homepage.
I am extremely jealous. I would so wish for rights to use that as a
homepage sig for usenet posts.

[*]
Those moments where one gets seized by a tempest of feeling, and hurls
all consequence to the four winds, shattering everything into flying
shards. Like those characters in the Dostoevsky novels: Driven by such
a furious momentum of emotion, there were turns in the story where I've
lept up front-stage, to play out the role of the unleashed buffoon...

Yeah, okay, so I prefer romanticizing foibles of youth; it's easier to
own up to than specific, sordid details....

Oh, way back to the original subject. Erm, cannot see how to tie it in.
Very difficult to try to impagine Feodor here with us, debating the name
of a computer program. Since his favored activites were more from the
domain of major gambling, drinking, and an occasional horticulture...

I don't think this is a valid nomination. There has to be a *download*.
If the apps were packaged together it be okay but as it is I think you
have to nominate them separately. That's *my* interpretation of the
rules, feel free to bring this up in the General Discussion thread if
you like.

Yeah, but nominating them separately is a bit strange too.
But okay, I'll leave them out. ;-)

If you have a favorite on the list why not nominate that app/package?
