There is no way you can seriously believe this would still be going on had it not been for Sam. There would have been someone else siphoning off funds. This thing obviously didn't scale well. The naïveté is astounding.
Not in the spirit no, but still part of the experiment. I honestly don't think Sam is going to get much heat over this from people who matter in his life. Most smart people will look at it from the experiment POV and…
