To quote Donald Sutherland from one of the best movies of all time:
"All these negative waves, man." (Kelly's Heroes)

I can't take credit for making up the words and neologism,
I got it from wikipedia, so you should thank them.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gift_economy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_economy

And besides, an attribution license is a gift economy license, anyway,
not a market economy license. so if I were going to scream
anything it would be that.

"I just drive the tank, man. I don't fix them."
