Real world: when a corporation is faced with federal prosecution, it is easier to admit "guilt" or plead nolo contendre than go through the time, expense, battery of lawyers and agony the federal government will put you through. Plus, if you lose, you can often be hit with treble damages.

Any rational corporate executives (read cowards) usually do the expedient thing and pay off the strong-arming to put the situation behind them.

In the case of Bill Gates, I hope he breaks the DOJ.

I actually have 8 different email addresses at the moment. But I assure you, John and I are not the same person. Can you not tell by the styles of writing?

Thanks for the compliment re my poetry.

When can I get back to relating my life story? Need more votes or it'll be #3 for sure!
