Sometime in the near future. Informational brochures in the lobby of Atlantic Records will contain nothing but the words "YOU SUCK" in big blue letters.

One hopes they printed off the GFDL and stapled it to the brochure.

A professional company that doesn't proofread their work? I could understand it if they had used Wikipedia info and missed some sneaky vandalism, but copying wholesale without checking it is inexcusable. They deserve what they got.
It's true. People need to be educated. Just because it's a top search on Google or just because it looks nice doesn't mean something is true. People need to be more critical.

It's also remarkable that the National Post in reporting on the matter called the town Sioux Falls instead of Sioux Lookout. They should know better.
