No. Typically, most of the scandals here result from things that I say.
I must be crazy to risk my professional livelyhood to post information
about Google and Yahoo engaging in 9/11 censorship. After I leave my
current job, I'm pretty sure I'll never be able to work as a software
developer in Columbus again until the facts about 9/11 come out. Taking
personal responsibilty for what is going on in the world isn't always
smiled upon. I've been quiet for a long time and have known about
Google since March, but when I saw what was going on Yahoo it was just
too much and I have to speak out. If that means I can't write software
professionally anymore, I'll just go do something else.


BTW:

Great quote by the way although I like Rosseau better (paraphrasing):

"I suddenly realized in blinding flash of light: That man by his nature
is inherently good. It is only our institutions that make us bad."
