I was watching a corporate shill on CNBC the other day when an epiphany struck me: the reason I have become so cynical is that all the 'important' information I get comes from people wearing suits. I don't know why, but I have a thing against such folks. This might probably be because of an inherent bias I have against establishment figures (the number of corporate scandals that erupt with depressing regularity lends weight to my bias, as well). I would definitely give more credence to somebody like RMS who does not feel the need to conform to an image to put across his points (no, this does not mean that I am a Jesus freak).
