Of course not.  What did William Casey recommend?  Blame the dead guy?

As an aside, the original tip went to a Las Vegas Review story--I'm not sending traffic their way any more.  This minor blog, of and by itself, will not make a difference--but cumulatively, if others adopt the same resolution (and I know some have already publicly taken the lead), perhaps we can express our displeasure in a way they will understand.

Oh good--I just had a best-laid-plans moment and wondered if the Reno Gazette-Journal was on "the list"--it's not.
