Your attack has silently switched from "MacOS can use the UNIX  
trademark?!" to "MacOS can use the UNIX trademark, but it's not really  
Unix!".  Yes, attack.  You weren't really answering a question, you  
were trolling to reopen this discussion, which we just had about a  
month ago or so, I think.

Your debate tactics are faulty and leave a bad taste.
