In response to the PPG building nonsense:
I think there's a propensity for employees to believe their company's
stuff is secret even when it's manifestly obviously it isn't and
can't be. About forty years ago, a friend and I walked into a
Western Union office and asked for a copy of the Morse code. (A
friend of my friend had sent him a message encoded in Morse code; it
was their form of fun.) The clerk in the Western Union office
responded it was company proprietary and he wouldn't share it with us.
This is all annoying and we need do indeed need to challenge it, but
I also think it will pass in time.
Steve
