I can't make sense of nonsense, but that proves nothing about my 
reading skills.
You've done a careful job of excerpting prior context away to avoid 
demonstrating the contradiction your words show.

Do you recognize the author who inspired by remark about A and not A?
Who was it that said "Non-contradiction...A is A"?

And dropping AAC support from OpenBSD 3.7 has nothing to do with it...?
Such a claim is disingenuous and dishonest.

I hope open source projects obtain more information from hardware 
vendors.  I oppose efforts to force people to make choices they would 
not willingly make themselves.  That includes the right of a company to 
keep some information private if they so choose.

First you say you aren't asking me to do anything, yet two sentences 
later you try to tell me to stop doing something you claim I'm doing.

Contradicting yourself again?
Hypocracy isn't one of your prettier failings, Adam.
