How my brain works, an example:

"We just got an email from a user in the Ukraine who says they're unable to connect to the system," I'm informed earlier.

The way my brain works is this: I immediately reply, "You could point out that maybe if they spent a bit less time poisoning political candidates and more time on their network infrastructure that maybe this kind of thing wouldn't happen."

It all got sorted out in a couple hours, but I don't think my initial troubleshooting suggestion was taken.

I'm wondering why the Ukrainian candidate/prez-elect isn't raising more of a stink about the Lithium poisoning.

I thought it was a 400x normal dose of dioxin, which is not really the most efficient way to poison someone if you want to kill them.

Anyway, I'm still skeptical as to whether the guy was poisoned or not and as to whether and how much voter fraud went on that supposedly demanded a revote/recount. We have claims of that kind made every time there's an election here, and we hardly ever have them. Not that I wish to see old-school hardline commies stay in power, but what real evidence do I have that would indicate that there was fraud committed? Every story I read and all the research (not much) that I've done just says there was "widespread fraud." How do I know that? I can't even find more than one "concrete" anecdotal example. Just allegation and rioting in the streets.

I suppose they are looking for whoever poisoned him about as hard as OJ is looking for the real killer.
