Already had one non-programmer at work run off with an "Unbungtube" CD
to put on the home machine instead of doing an expensive MS upgrade.

I was chatting with my mate Osama the other day about this. He said he'd
rather bomb a mosque or spend a week in Guantanamo Bay with guards from
Abu Ghraib than report false positives to the CIA, FBI or others. But
then, he heard about what they do with Anthrax and Sarin gas in subways,
so what does he know? He's got a great sense of humour, doesn't take
himself too seriously (which is good with a name like his).
