<P>Emilia, they say Scanlan got fired. I wouldn't be surprised given his constant paranoid rantings, but some of them are starting to believe what he was saying. Some of them, Garfield included, think that Scanlan wasn't laid off, he was "silenced" like you say. I'm not sure what to think, Scara may be mad and WorldCorp does have a quite intolerant employment policy, but killing people or experimenting on random members of the board? I just don't think anyone can be THAT cynical.

<P>>I actually spoke to Irvin at lunch today. He was talking 
<P>>really fast, so I didn't get all of it, but he said something 
<P>>about having found a hidden database somewhere on the servers 
<P>>by mistake. He said he'd been working on the ScanJournal 
<P>>project when he somehow managed to use that program to bypass 
<P>>the Black Ice firewalls and get into this secret database. 
<P>>Then he started ranting about journals of per-verted 
<P>>experiments on random humans abducted right off the street, 
<P>>and he seemed quite certain that he was going to be silenced 
<P>>by some secret spy department of the company any day now.
<P>>
<P>>By the time he was finished I was genuinely afraid. He just 
<P>>seemed so I don't know, I almost think he was telling the truth. 
<P>>But thinking about it again, it was so completely crazy it 
<P>>couldn't possibly be true.

<P>>What do you make of it?
