Venture capitalists for a non-profit? Umm, you might want to redirect that "Duh!" toward a mirror, mate. Most VCs don't dump their money into non-profits since they don't normal MAKE a profit.
I've already filed for patents for the missionary, ERA, doggy, dirty Sanchez, pile-driver, and filthy Karl positions. I'm also filing for several oral positions, but will license out having the woman lay on the bed with her head off the side and...well, I don't want to divulge too many secrets before the patents are granted...
I'm going to make millions suing the pr0n industry!
At my old company, the way they motivated poor developers was to make them senior engineers or program managers and then lay off all of the good engineers who now worked under/for them.
We had, at my last job, some programmers we "adopted" when we "merged" with another company. During a project for our only customer, we were writing code in Javascript. The adopted programmers used variables names like "kyle", "stan", "cartman" and any temporary variable was named "kenny1", "kenny2", etc. They also used "evil.com" and "fuckshelbyville" and the like in the code.
Needless to say, the CUSTOMER was always supposed to take ownership of the code after it was completed. Sure, the variable names were cute and funny at the time, but the customer saw that and adopted a whole new view on my company afterward.
The programmers were released from their duties...
And who's _paying_ for the information? Another company who does so by passing the cost on to _their_ customers. In the end, it's always the consumer who pays for these things.
Like the saying says, "your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins". His right to an opinion does not give him the right to act on it outside of standard channels.

Or try trillian. I use it on my Win2k machine to handle ICQ, MSN, AIM and Yahoo. One-click login for all accounts is nice.
Nah, they're just blowing smoke up our asses...

Yes. In product code, the above would get you a written warning. Such things are unprofessional and would get flagged during code review.
