Hi Tom, Well, if they all look like Bill Gates, then we can just steal their eyeglasses and we'll render them harmless. (Grin)

They are notorious among journalists for being sensationalist, scary, and light on facts. Go to their web site with an ad blocker active and they won't let you in unless you turn it off. And of course they promise few ads. Then it's literally like trying to find your way through a jungle of ads in order to find bits and pieces of the actual article scattered all over the page between ads. So at least for me, none of their material is worth reading. Next week they'll probably headline that they've discovered a huge conspiracy wherein Windows 10 was designed by the ultimate geek supremacist race to destroy humanity as we know it so the geeks can take over the world. They already have a million Bill Gates clones fascist militia, and well, you get the picture. smile.
