Mail me details if you've ever refused to work on some software
project because of its military applications or overtones.

NOTE: I'm *not* interested in the endless debate on whether one *ought*
to have refused, or of the futility of such refusal, or whatever --
I want to hear from people who *did* refuse, and why.  If you *did* refuse,
please mail me about how it worked out for you.

I've never talked with anyone who has ever refused.
