      And in other news, Market Research company WATTALOAD, predicts that in 2004, pigs will fly and Satan will by skating to work. This prediction has nothing to do with trying WATTALOAD attempting to gain free publicity for their own market research services.

          This[^] may be related... "The .NET Passport Manager Source Licensing Program enables developers and other interested individuals to access and use Passport Manager Source code for both commercial and noncommercial purposes, including the creation and distribution of derivatives of the licensed source code for non-Windows applications" On a way to GPL?

They thought up the one thing guaranteed to get the attention of any media agency and then made up some waffle. Michael, you should start up WATTALOAD and make millions based on nothing.
