A Rash of Deaths and a Missing Reporter – With Ties to Wall Street Investigations

[mathematic]

62. It is unbelievable how many recs this non-story has

What kind of person believes the following 4 things are related:

1) Retired financial executive's death
2) Financial software executive's death ("Lead Architect Technology&quot
3) Chief economist's death (a researcher)
4) Oil commodities reporter's death

when the 4 people didn't work in the same place, the same city, in the same parts of the industry, or have anything else in common, really.

If there was a suicide at yahoo, apple, best buy, and the washington post would anybody have the same reaction? This is frankly absurd. I mean there's not even a HINT of any relationship between these people.

Say there are a bunch of suicides in a hated industry, call it suspicious, and everybody breaks out their pet paranoid theories and starts stockpiling like they're Linda Hamilton in a Terminator movie. It's truly mind-boggling.
