Handling Corporate Laptop Theft Gracefully
Billosaur writes "From NPR, we get a Marketplace story about the theft of corporate laptops and the sensitive data they may contain, specifically how to handle the repercussions. From the story: 'TriWest operates in about 21 states. It's based in Phoenix, Arizona. In December of 2002, somebody broke into the company's offices and stole two computer hard drives.And those hard drives contained the personal information of 550,000 of our customers from privates in the military all the way up to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.' How they handled the situation earned them an award from the Public Relations Society of America."
I think we all know that the real question here is, in a straight, clean fight, who wins, Airwolf or Bluethunder?. Now I know what your thinking? What chance does stright to video star Jan-Michael Vincent have against HAL chess playing, shark killing, SeaQuest DSV commanding Roy Scheider? Well to you I say, don't forget that Airwolf co-pilot was none other than Poseidon surviving, Gattaca acting, SpongeBob SquarePants Mermaid Man (I shit you not) Ernest Borgnine. Yeah people. Not so easy now is it?

So you set the agenda for moderation now?

There's a limited range of options. The important part is the sign of the value, as that affects the score, and not the text alongside it.
