If true, OUT RAGEOUS! Jack Hanbury has NO PLACE on this or any other campus.

I told him I didn't think it could be true, and he said it came straight from Ken Malone (they were all out the other night).  He said Malone told them all and was laughing at the fact that JH would be back on campus teaching and working.  He even said KM said that his salary would be pretty good --- between $65k and $80k.  They're trying to move some CBED funds around and combine them with some central admin money. The phd student that told me this thinks I'm "down with the cause", but he doesn't know I am not on his side about things.  I'll keep it that way so he'll keep feeding info.  "

Well, duh, (as my kids say.)  If you ain't a troll, you just "outed" yourself with your source.  You just had lunch with somebody who gives you inside info and YOU POST IT ON THIS BOARD.  Think they might make you?

Excellent point, ram.  I have wondered if some of the more outrageous rumors that crop up here aren't really devices to test the flow of information.  It's an old technique, to give a piece of information to one person and watch the path it takes.

One of the more recent Tom Clancy books built a story around this strategy.  More interesting than giving a piece of information to one person is giving slightly different versions to different people and seeing which versions show up.  Did Tim Hudson learn this in CIA school?

I dare Jack Hanbury to show his face on USM's campus, much less as a faculty member (even adjunct).  This is a ridculous rumor meant to rile everyone up.  Don't take the bait.

Ram,

I don't know if it's available in the Burg, but allow me to highly recommend Spaten Optimator.

Invictus,

Yup, the link passed through. I realize you offered this suggestion with tongue firmly planted in cheek, and clearly it's name is rich with symbolism, but I gotta tell you that it's really good stuff. In fact, I think I'll go fetch a pint now.....thanks for reminding me.
