Well...that is the Congressman's current explanation. Looking at all the facts...it may or not be his. The tweet is most likely from him or from somebody screwing with him who know his secret Yfrog email id. His actions seem more like those of a person covering up an "oh shit ooops" than like a victim who got hacked. He does seem to not want to involve the vendors or law enforcement in investigating.

Excellent, informative reply. So, how come no moderators have mod'd it up?

Charge high for worthless Liberal arts degrees. To benefit society, STEM-type degrees should be mostly free to those that can do it.

The phrase you are looking for is the "Sunk Cost Fallacy".

"US culture doesn't value "STEM" careers. Why should US citizens go against their own culture?" . That is a big part of it. Tech Geeks are denigrated in the media, by their bosses, business leaders, and by the public at large. They want want the consume goods we produce...they just don't have geeklove.

==>> "because a "Democracy" would have "Democrat" in it." == The article says no such thing. Note: I consider the whole "its a republic not a democracy" debate to equivalent to "its an automobile, not a car". It's idiotic.

1) Cost. 2) I don't want to be "always-on" for everybody and everything that is connected.My cell phone is for my convenience, not for the convenience of others. I am an IT pro and have been on the Internet one way or another since 1984. Since I am not a day today SysAdmin anymore, I have a work Cell phone that Ionly have on during work hours. My personal cellphone is really an emergency only phone: a pay-as-you-go Virgin Mobile phone.

"...have been happily using netflix and hulu plus for 2 months now..." - and - "...I am so happy i am not supporting FOX and..." Who do you think partially owns Hulu?

The linked to Wired article says his lawyers are from CAIR (which is a Muslim Brotherhood front in the USA). So...there is some smoke after all.

So...how did the scientist get so many deaf cat samples?

...is considered ignored? This is a flawed study with a sweeping conclusion based on a bad assumption.

This is a 20 person company, correct? Just go over and talk to the guy/gal in charge and ask them what they like to be kept up on. Yours is a 20 PERSON company, there is no bureaucracy to navigate.
