Mobsters, thieves & politicians tend to do "good" after getting caught for malfeasance, too. WG didn't get "caught", he(MS) gamed the system, incorporated others' work & ruined most competitors. Now he gets to live with his conscience.

Extend. Embrace. Extinguish. Atone.

If you read "In Search of Stupidity" by Chapman, you'll see that most of his competitors ruined themselves all by themselves.

It's not easy to run a successful business. My own, Zortech, would have been far more successful if I'd had half a brain instead of only a quarter of one.
