@ComicPenius ***I wouldn't be surprised if Google, Yahoo and Microsoft are all NSA fronts.***

Shows what you've learned, If the government were behind these companies, we'd still be writing on cave walls and fonts would be when you get from eating too many bad prunes.

Compare this guy to Steve Jobs.

Sergey Bin: "Yea sure we love competition. I hope they keep innovating to compete with us!"

Steve Jobs: "You want to compete with us? We'll sue the f*ck out of you!"

Please YouTube this: "Google is Bad-Ass! (Video to Larry Page & Sergey Brin)"

I do not want money or fame (both can go F-themselves) - I only want as many people at Google as possible to know that they are appreciated by people like me, and their haters suck.  Thank you in advance, Me (Scott)
