A'holes On Ludes?
It's a shame but they did it to themselves.
AOL has traditionally (on the Internet) been the Army Of Lamers/Losers. *!*@*.aol.com is probably the most common ban on Internet relay chat networks.
I will party when they are no more.

I was told by an AOL employee that Arianna Huffington will be the director of their entire news operation. HuffPo is pretty much their model with a paid editorial staff and a lot of unpaid bloggers.
LOL - Gee, wonder why?
ROFLMAO
Even Indian writers making a dollar a day are too expensive for Arianna...

Well, you got that right. Two stories...applied techniques.
You get a mysterious email inviting or asking or ordering you to join a 'meeting' in the auditorium. So, you ask around and find out that 'everyone' is going to be at the 'meeting', and they really are. The doors are locked and you are given your box and escorted out the back way by security.
You come to work one day and cannot seem to logon. hmmm. You call IT, and they tell you to report to HR.
