"Bill Gates"



In the local newspaper on Monday 21st January 2002.
Datelined : Ankara 

'A 49 year old Briton, William Bernard Gates, slashed his throat in a
mid-flight suicide bid yesterday, forcing a Sri Lankan Airlines plane to make a
emergency landing in Turkey. It was en route from Colombo to London when Gates
was found in a pool of blood in one of the airplane's lavatories, where he had
apparently cut his throat with a piece of broken mirror.'

My genuine sympathies to this Mr. Gates but with a two names like that what
else can you do?
