On a related note, I was at lunch today with a group
of people who work in the same building. At some
point, we were tossing around a debate over certain
aspects of operating system security. I returned some
banter with, "But that's as much established
scientific fact as the Apollo moon landing."
An uncomfortable silence followed.
Apparently, several members of the group are of the
belief that the landings were faked.
Can't please everyone, I guess, which makes working
with a global audience hard if not impossible.
