    Grow up people. Gary's comment was sincere, on target and well stated. Conspiracy theories are fun, but they're only that - fun. In a world where politicians can't even keep news about what they do with their privates private, health care companies couldn't deep six a cancer cure, auto companies couldn't hide engines that run on water and the music industry couldn't replace Paul McCartney with a look-alike

    Let's not get silly and let personal prejudices derail something that was very serious. Gary made good points. Steve Jobs was a marketing genius the likes of which this country hasn't seen in three generations. This country spends billions, perhaps trillions of dollars poorly every year, money that would have more impact if it were spent on research to reverse cancer and search for cures to other diseases ranging from diabetes to autism.

    It's a serious topic. Treat it with respect.
