Silly nerds.

Well, Fresno made the national news this morning. PS3 riot shown on the Today show. woop woop!

Anyway, I heard on Jim Rome yesterday that some guys in Japan hired guys out of a homeless shelter to stand in line for them to get PS3s. The guys are apparently going to sell them on eBay for a tidy profit. They gave the guys money for standing in line and fed them. If you phrase this one way, it could sound like exploiting/dehumanizing the homeless guys. If you phrase it another way, it sounds like employing people who need work and money.

Anyone got any thoughts on this?
