Never underestimate the power

Dec 13 2001
Never underestimate the power of a little scripting, and a lot of nerd. Time.com's online poll, which asked users to vote for the illustrious (though farcical) Person of the Year, showed brief signs of reason today as a host of Georgia Tech computers were able to tip the scales overwhelmingly in favor of a single candidate. That candidate, the mysterious George P. Burdell, is rumored a scholar, a WWII veteran, a premier member of Atlanta's society pages, and now Time's Person of The Year. Congratulations George! George P. Burdell might just be the only good thing about Georgia Tech. Well, ok, Tommy is good too.
