    LOL I think we should nominate Bill Gates to go to Mars with the monkeys as he is the world leader.They probably all speak machine code anyway so he would feel right at home.

    I tell you what I find surprising. The included Microsoft images include tracking web bugs, and not near the other images
    Bugnosis analysis of: Microsoft Linux - the premier linux distro (http://www.mslinux.org/ [Details])

    Highlighted images may be Web bugs. Highlighted images are suspicious.

    ... and 6 other images including 2 single pixel ones

    were these bugs accidentally pasted when the other elements were copied? This is interesting -
    Maybe Microsoft know we visited
