It was wrong to subvert security protocols, but this employee was genius if he could spend 1/5 of salary to outsource his job with no one noticing any change in the level of the code being delivered.
There are literally hundreds of companies that should hire this individual to manage an entire team of outsourced developers.
Cool technology, but not what I really want to see as an audience member.

@MrDrone - I hear you. And it took me a while to frame the discussion (@PG's email was sent to me on Oct. 16 & post was created Dec. 5).
I wanted to share the experience, because it would be helpful to others and also uplifting that we can make personal connections on the web. However, I was not proud that I was once banned and I didn't want this post to generate backlash from the community at large.

What's the advantage of using this grid system, instead of a framework that contains this functionality and more (such as Twitter Bootstrap or Skeleton)?
Yes, need problems in order to have innovative problems. With this theory, third world nations with the worst infrastructure would be booming with innovation.
There is so much more required than problems. America drives innovation because of many factors, including standard of living, capitalistic markets, freedom of choice, and access to educational opportunities.
