You missed the point, a fact can be obtained and a theory discounted without understanding the "complete origins of the universe" which no one can satisfy without mentioning God. The consensus was wrong and believed to be all but proved and those very physicists are now saying so due to those who grew up asking questions in the classroom realising more and more that the lecturer was wrong and the attention and work refocussed on new more likely ideas with new flaws. So you really believe the old theory that a single Big bang started the universe and which and is more likely a multiverse. A term concocted I suppose to stop treading on peoples toes. I suppose you believe in string theory too and going faster than light puts you in the past rather than just seeing the past, but enough digressing. This work will likely never end but good does come of it. I suppose you blindly believe everything physicists and Lennart says. Kindly tell me privately what you believe is 'on base' currently as I won't spam this list any more. I'd be shocked, if it was credible, though it may be interesting and answer some questions leading to new ones. > Back on track: You and I have different standards for complexity.

It is not as modular as you like without study, a major rewrite and recompilation. I guess you missed the posts about embedded and Android and busybox using an init system leaner than the usual /sbin/init. You also seem to have missed or ignored the points about complex kernel requirements etc. that it wants to apply to every system and contrary to the arch way 2.0. -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
