2776    i Twingle: Wie janosch sagt: "Wieso ist denn da kein Link? Wir sind doch im Internet...!?"

2781    i wargames
2782      It really *is* absurd:
2783        The usa leads their tactical war against iraq and
2784        my friends down here are playing strategical war
2785        games on their computers.
2786      Let's gear towards planning a better future without the tactical root of evil.
2787      Let's try to apply the philosophy of the FSF to the Engineering- and Media- Industry.
2788      Is there already an Open Engineering License? Is it required in fact?
2789      The industry seems to be too slow to adapt new innovations....

2803                debts, while idleness or despair will increase them.
2804          
2805                      We are more industrious than our forefathers,
2806                      because in the present times the funds destined for
2807                      the maintenance of industry are much greater in
2808                      proportion to those which are likely to be employed
2809                      in the maintenance of idleness, than they were two
2810                      or three centuries ago.               --A. Smith.

2812             2. Any department or branch of art, occupation, or business;
2813                especially, one which employs much labor and capital and
