I didn't reply to you directly in case you thought that if I commented on the protesters I would somehow be in support of them. I'm merely pointing out that they can't get to "the Man" or even see "the Man" clearly so they are going after a barely related symptom and not a cause.

it's the move of a coward raging in his own impotence.

There's a lot of that about but it still results in real anger. Some have uncharitably stuck that label on the entire Tea party thing but I'm sure it's more complicated than that.

She makes a valid point but I'd say it's not really relevant. People are protesting about their conditions and are going after a soft target because the people to blame for their conditions are not as easy a target or even easy to identify.
See also attacks on "those migrants that are taking our jobs" for similar irrelevant soft target stupidity.

Good point. What I found galling is that Kutyna alone probably couldn't have got the message out before being sidelined. IMHO due to how NASA exec positions were handed out as prizes by the powerful in politics it looked like it needed someone already staring death in the face to speak out without being silenced.

Just pointing out an incredibly obvious error.

Quoting JFK on honesty and openness in government. Maybe you should study some history.

Same with storage. Want RAID 6 + deduplication online + autotiering + the ability to snapshot volumes

Did Oracle vanish overnight?

Some of the employees have/had a lot in stock too with restrictions on trading it. Someone I knew in RSA thought he was getting cash a while back for bringing in some of his IP from before he joined the company but it was all in stock he had to sit on all through the tech crash. When he started he was facing a "join or we sue you" situation as well.
They have/had some pretty nasty lawyers and execs in that place.

It's a large number if it went into one person's pocket instead of general cash flow. Maybe that's what happened?

So? Even heroic aviators loved by all the public were fascists back then. Charlie Chaplin was given a very hard time for opposing fascism, right up to the point where people were calling such a millionaire capitalist a communist without understanding how utterly stupid such an accusation was. What really mattered were the fascists that got to control nations.
There's a long enough list of abuse of the position of both Bush Presidents without going after granddad for what he wanted to do but couldn't.

With a quote like that you should change your sig to "Dagon lives in my garage" :)

I thought I'd managed to forget that plot. Not the best moment from the "doctors with nuclear weapons" guy. Still, it beats highly intelligent albino gorillas with stone ping pong paddles hands down.

This is the terror-stricken service of the BBC. Today at approximately this afternoon, a discovery was made on the site of the Notting Hill Gate site of the government’s new dig-up-the-roads-plan-for-congesting-traffic scheme. Workmen in the absence of a strike settled for work as an alternative. It was during this brief lull in high-powered inertia that Morris Onions, a scaffolder’s knee-wrencher, stumbled across something he’d found.

Professor Ned Quatermass (O.B.E.) in the Goon show episode inspired by Quatermass looked in a different spot but still in London :)

Well then, read it again. You'll see what I mean. If you see something that confirms what you are saying instead you can link it and say "I told you so". Either way you gain.

Read what you've written. That's not official channels and sounds exactly like engineers having to sneak around their management doesn't it? Kutyna was in a position where he could be threatened so that's why we heard it from a dying Nobel prize winner who had bigger things to worry about than losing his job.

Please stop pretending that you are not taking me a vast distance out of context. Your disgusting conspiracy theory was the thing that dishonoured the dead and suggested that the US government had murdered thousands of civilians on 911.
