I for one am very glad RMS existed to write emacs and save us all from vi.

I'm glad RMS existed to write emacs and give vi users someone to look down on ;-)
Something that emacs and vi users can agree about then - we're both glad that RMS wrote emacs!
you have a point ;)
Is this where we all sing kumbayah together?
I'm glad that I get to enjoy the never ending drama of emacs vs vi. It's better than watching re-runs of 7th Heaven.

What isn't better than that?

I'm glad I have voper-mode +vimpulse so that I don't have to decide between them. :)
You should also install ispell-mode.
ispell-mode comes with emacs, but not with FireFox. Anyway, my browser is currently a little mis-configured so I can't actually see what I type as I type it. I need to fix it, but I haven't gotten around to it.
. . . or use Vim with `:set spell`.
