Bill Gates an Idiot Once Again
« on: 1 July 2003, 03:51 »
Bill Gates went to the White house to meet with the Secretary of Homeland Security. He was held by security for hours because he forgot any of his identification, "not even his driver's license." (quote USA Today)

Just another case of Bill Gates being a dumbass... go ahead and ignore me if you want for this post

I bought Monday, June 30's edition of USA Today. I also have the link, which is http://www.usatoday.com/money/industries/technology/2003-06-29-gates-interview_x.htm

They don't have the part of the article which states he forgot his ID... I'll have to type it up from the paper  :(  I'll put the main idea of it right under the headline.

"Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates began Wednesday by showing up at the White House for a meeting with Homeland Security Secretary Tom RIdge -- and being held up at the door by guards because hd didn't have identifcation. Later in the day, Gates gave a speech about privacy on the 100th anniversary of author George Orwell's birth. In between, Gates talked with USA TODAY editors and technology reporters Kevin Maney and Byron Acohido about Microsoft's challenges, his work with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and his future. Here is an edited transcript..."

Bill Gates meeting with the Secratary of Homeland Security...anyone else find anything wrong with this?   I wonder what kind of a conversation they had.  Maybe the gov. thinks M$ software can fight cyber-terrorism and all.
