But he totally ignores the management committee member who plainly says that
IBM does not use the GPL. Whether some internal manager is satisfied or not
does not qualify him to say "IBM is satisfied". IBM clearly is not
accepting of the GPL terms and conditions and does not use it.

All I am suggesting is that many here fawn over the supposed good news
regardless of the credibility of the source or the presence of contrary
information. I don't believe that you can honestly deny that is the case.
That is a poor source of any interesting debate. As to personal insults,
you can be the judge of whom is more vicious, the Linux crowd or the MS
defenders.
