    Wow, I'm glad I come to slashdot to read stories like this. They don't let a little irrelevance and a healthy dose of "so what" get in the way of a front-page post.

    But do you think that scandals such as Enron/Worldcom occur because there isn't enough regulation, or because there's so much regulation that 'dubious accounting practices' become the norm?

    Weren't the Enron and WorldCom financial scandals signed off as valid accounting by the very companies (in this case, outside accounting firms) that you claim would help to prevent this from happening by allowing public trust to be placed in them, at least up to just before their bitter ends?
