#2 The Obama cwmoaign boasted in 2008 as well as in 2012 that they had help from Progressive-led internet companies like Facebook in finding and targetting various groups of potential voters, claiming that was why their turnout was so high.

Nice to see it being confirmed by those who contributed. Incidentally, oughtn’t that count as “in kind” political contributions, which very likely exceeded legal contribution limits? It would be interesting to see the IRS get involved, if so...

#6 My business related interactions with today's generation of IT people is they are sub-par in everything. They are 180 degrees different from the pioneers of the Information Technology revolution. Poor judgment, lazy, say what you want to hear then do nothing, full of excuses why they can't accomplish anything worthwhile and conniving. Pretty much sums up our younger generation in total.

#7 I still get mail all the time with blank padding issues in the name and address block. I wrote code to handle that when I was 19 years old...
