Trojan Horse Caused A Siberian Explosion
An anonymous reader writes "William Safire of the nytimes [nytimes.com] has an interesting column this week describing how the Soviets purchased bogus computer chips from the West in the 1970's.

It's not just tinfoil hat people.

Religion is the hallmark of human stupidity. Why can't people think rationally and see there are no deities and no gods whatsoever? Killing someone in the name of some imaginary fairy tale creature is about the most inane thing imaginable.
