These so-called professionals are nothing but a bunch of self-important trolls who prey upon the feeble. Demonstrating their hacking prowess each attempts to out-geek the next guy with projections of cataclysmic destruction and mayhem. Of course, only they have the means of averting disaster...if and only if you purchase their products and services. These are people who are wholly unemployable in any traditional business but who find money and interest among the government sectors in all their bureaucratic ignorance and publishers who are grasping for readers.
