    (not that I would want to break anybody's record on /., of course).

    "I am a non-Microsoft guy working at Microsoft," Hilf said."

    Tells me all I need to know - he's a liar like everybody else at Microsoft.

    Overall, Microsoft may be the `enemy', but the individual employees certainly aren't.

    So you consider Vinod Valloppillil and Josh Cohen just average working people like those working at any other software company?

    Where the heck do you think microsoft gets these venemous ideas and methods from, mars? No. "cancer", "communist", "anti-american" comes directly from their employees.

    Hilf tries to hide it, but you can easily read through the transparent veneer to see he's been thoroughly programmed as well. He certainly has a lot of the microsoft marketdroid-speak.
