Dearest Corey,

Are you being deliberatly obtuse or are you displaying innate stupidity 
here, do share.

Last time I checked YOU didn't make any decisions about what to do with 
openbox, but i bet if you did you'd deal with important things like 
setting the background first, because that seems to be the number one 
feature requirement these days.

Please stop acting like a fucking moron, or at least stop sending 
pathetic condescending mail to the list, if you find the former too hard.

If you like the way blackbox works so much I think you know what to do.

thanking you in advance,

David
