OT: Ft Gay, GA

[Bob Sneidar]

Yeah I finally found it myself. I figured it was a case of some software system throwing a flag combined with an outsource phone operator who only read from a script, but when I saw how far the guy had to go to resolve it, I was astounded! Mind you, I think homosexuality is a perversion, but that has nothing to do with any of this. To bounce the guy then stick to their guns even after they knew the truth of the situation speaks volumes about the largeness of Microsoft and their inflexibility when confronted with a situation that is out of the ordinary. 

BTW don't anyone bother deriding me for that. Speech is still free. :-)
