Fallows and Crook say the "scandal" is silly. Clive:
The idea that 400
journalists, academics and assorted hangers-on could plot to do
anything, even if they agreed they wanted to, is laughable.
Jim:
In the other listservs I know -- about China, software, aviation, defense, cybersecurity, etc -- some people's careers could be gravely damaged if their least judicious single sentences were used against them out of context years later. I really, really hate to see that done to young people now...
