In response to those talking about freedom of speech, it's pretty pathetic to mention.

As an example, take the "Collateral Murder" video on YouTube; it's still there. A very significant video that shows US military 'doing things they shouldn't' in Iraq. On that evidence alone, I put it to you that we either have free speech, or Google don't bow down to government pressure easily. Either way, it's pretty good as far as I can tell.

All I can hear in my head when I read the south Korean currency is Charlie Sheen performing his piece de la resistance 'winning', except this time it was Samsung. Charlie and Sam need to get together, and win.
