Remember Mike that the MS Technical staff don't lie although sometimes they
may be involved with a 'prank' as a result of a brush with alcohol

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/07/20/ms_blog_alcohol_culprit/

Alcohol was to blame for senior Microsoft developers setting a blog-born
trap for a journalist, according to the company's most-prominent weblog
evangelist, Robert Scoble.

A hoax perpetrated by senior Microsoft technical staff has backfired, after
Microsoft Watch's Mary Jo Foley rumbled the prank.

Staff led by middleware guru Don Box "invented" a new business
process language called BML that was part of a project called Boa.

Microsoft has unleashed over 1,400 bloggers, hoping that their emergent
hive mind will speed the next version of Windows, Longhorn, to release. Sun
Microsystems lags slightly behind in this arms race, with far fewer staff
on hand to generate the Real Time Noise that's an essential part of
bringing software to market in a timely fashion [are you sure about this? -
ed]. The tittering Microsoft bloggers spread the word about Boa, BML and
"Indigo Marks".
