I don't' get it.... Why aren't people heading over to these places with 
torches and pitchforks?  How many friggin times does a "laptop" have to 
be stolen with SS#'s and other confidential information have to get 
stolen before people realize that this type of data should never, ever, 
EVER be placed on a laptop for ANY reason....

I'm figuring I may as well get it over with and just post my social 
security number and other personal information on the internet.
