What has objectivism got to do with anarchism? I take offence at being put in the same pile as Rand fanatics.

That's interesting. I wonder if that was more due to the fact that everyone on the internet back then seemed to have an obsession with Rand, and he might have moved on since. But maybe he's still like that, I just didn't pick that up from the more recent stuff I read from him. Thanks for the info though!
