Microsoft Infected by Virus

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the cough-cough dept.

Vicissidude writes "It appears that a Microsoft worker returning from overseas brought back a case of Measles with them. In fact, they had been back, working, and spreading the disease at Microsoft and other places in Redmond for at least four days prior to being discovered. Somehow I do not think that Microsoft included in their cost-benefit analysis of offshoring the potential wide-spread infection of their company. Perhaps they should include that risk in the future."

    I think you'll find that circumsized people (at least in the US) are less likely to be hippy wackos, and that it's hippy wacko-ism that's the real cause of the correlation with HIV.
