Nope, I think Joseph's rendition is more correct.
Since Rene Descartes was French, he said "Je pense donc je suis." In Latin,
this translates to "Cogito ergo sum." In English, "I think therefore I am" or
"I think so I am." So Joseph's version is better, just look at it as follows:
"I don't think so ... <poof> I am not."

I believe what Mr. Descartes said was "I think not", and then he went bye
bye.

Rene` Descartes walked into a bar and order a drink. When he finished the
bartender asked him if he wanted another. Descartes replied, "I don't think
so," and promptly disappeared.

Yes, I'm pretty sure the NSA exists. I once had a job interview with them.

But is the premise true about the NSA able to snoop around all Microsoft
based products, or is it so much politically contrieved hype?
[And are you certain the NSA really exists? Show me where they are budgeted,
please? Isn't the NSA just an urban legend?]
