Good article. Smart guy. Say what you want about Fred, but I'm thankful for him. I hope he lives and works until he's 90.

Default Did he?

Did he talk about using FedEx Technology to track the movements of Illegal aliens? I am seriously concerned about the fact that an Alien seems to have taken contol of the mind of FDXer in order to control our thoughts here on the message board. He even now is imagining some sort of slight as an excuse to close the thread.

I especially liked the part on the Fox interview where Fred said all the great things about the purple promise and PSP. That people first part made me laugh...........
