Did not know; only knew about Otis by happenstance. I suppose this is now so commonplace it's not considered newsworthy. NYT front page does however consider whether a reader should not attend estranged friends' holidays.

Engineers, raise your hand if you've tried to do good work despite your management's 'support.' Oh, look at all the hands going up!

I used to have a Swedish running partner (doing postdoc in California). We'd argue about who had the 'least well-informed' voters (not the specific word we used). He claimed Sweden, I claimed US. He was disabusing me of the impression that all Swedes were knowledgable and cosmopolitan. Ongoing friendly argument -- until McCain picked Palin as his VP candidate. I sent him a text: 'I win.'
