"Dr. Richard Clapp,"

Expect some comments on this guy's name....

My heart goes out for the children of the trial lawyers who need big settlements so they can have food and shoes.

Sorry to hear this for the (possibly) afflicted IBM employees.

This news might offset the analyst upgrade IBM got this week, if the info wasn't public knowledge previously.

Ah, yes. IBM wants to kill off current/former employees, the better to save on pension costs.

Good gracious G-d, GARY HARTPENCE himself (who, with the aid of a totally turgid co-author) couldn't even write fiction THAT shabbily.

Well, being a moron, I suppose he could, but he'd have the devil of a time getting it published, assuming only that publishers cast a wary eye at political diatribes and ''exposes''.

Which, of course, they don't. Some publisher will put this nonsense out, just to try to exploit paranoia.

Bad lawyers + bad science = big bucks!

If IBM announces tomorrow that the job of every one of their U.S. employees is being outsourced to India, I can't say I would blame them.

[untwist]

Anything authored by hate mongers like Bob Herbert and printed in the NY Times should be subject to a very high degree of suspicion and question. My father was an IBM'er who worked for them in the 50's thru '72 and received excellent medical benefits for the rest of his life. He lived to be 80.

Those evil dastardly corporations are at it again!
