This is not a telecom-related topic; it is more of a 'continue to kick Microsoft around' matter.
Microsoft is a very influencial employer in the Redmond, Washington area. You may have read in the news recently where Microsoft had decided to 'go soft' on civil unions and 'gay marriage' as they are currently under discussion in the State of Washington. Ballmer and Gates say they 'just recently' decided on that course of action. But the GLEAM organization at Microsoft and AmericaBlog say that is not quite the case. 'Just recently', I mean ... it turns out that Ralph Reed, a very conservative Christian evangelical has been in the employ of Microsoft as an 'advisor' to Bill Gates for more than a year now, at a salary of $20 K _per month_ , with documentation in the form of his pay stubs, etc. Shame, shame, shame!
