Is there some group out there that just tries to out-do everyone else all
the time? I mean, jesus, a 16-year old kid who admitted to bringing in
viruses -- when it's almost evident that viri were already running amuk in
the school's computers -- and they're pushing "malicious destruction of
school property" which comes with 10 years in a pen and a $10k fine, in
addition to the $60k or so of actul "damage" which includes nearly $20k
that they had to pay to finially KEEP their systems clean?

Sorry, I just find this atrocious.
