Just once I'd like to find out that reality doesn't turn out as rotten as I can possible imagine it. To hear somewhere, someone, on some board said, "ya know, we've made enough this quarter, lets not make giant asses of ourselves by usurping and corrupting the system that allowed us to do so."

But before you go, I wonder if you might be interested in buying a bridge to a really good price...? (At least you get to find out some of this stuff in the US. In many other countries the 'ol boy's clubs are just too tight. I think I'll send money to WikiLeaks, even though they seem a bit weird.) Edit: Thanks, dexen. Sigh, I aimed for humorous and informative, not sarcastic. (I can't upvote you, since my "avg" is too low after questioning news sources which people claimed were good without having references. I probably came off as sarcastic then, too.)
