That reply has Steve Jobs written all over it. What you wrote was heartfelt, sincere, honest, and balanced. What RMS wrote in his reply just exemplifies why so many people ridicule and mock FSF. There is a strange tendency among FOSS supporters to belittle everyone who uses proprietary stuff. Instead of encouraging and inviting others to switch to FOSS, they try to belittle them and try to coerce them into switching to FOSS by basically saying "If you use proprietary software, you are evil".
