		<description>I hate to bake everyone&#039;s noodle, but I don&#039;t think that Ben is a rockstar at all. He&#039;s just another Stanford PhD who managed to get in at Google and leave with a little media hype. He was a product manager for Google Checkout, which is largely a flop and doesn&#039;t generate much profit (if any at all). &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The media tends to treat anyone with a PhD as an irreplaceable genius. Yet the academic community itself knows that just because someone has a PhD doesn&#039;t mean that he/she is smart (let along a genius).</description>

		<description>Now that was a authentic Dave.  Thank you.  I agree that they have pissed off the community but what about hiring non-technical people to do PR rather than get talented people like Ben.  Losing rockstars doesn&#039;t do well.  This culture and trend at Facebook is far from getting their shit together.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;thanks for the smooch</description>
