Even though this is for charity I feel the same way. :/

orik··on John McAfee on Obamacare Website: Backbone.js is Impractical
I don't know what to think about this.

When my Grandfather calls me worried about what the man on Fox News said about Obamacare, I'll have to refer him to thee "How To Uninstall McAfee Antivirus" video and explain that Mcafee is a loon.

orik··on Namebox - sell your unwanted or unused domains
