Man sues IBM over firing, says he's an Internet addict

It'll be interesting to see how this case plays out in court, given the accused has listed off a large number of reasons why he shouldn't be fired - Vietnam being the main one. Two things that stuck out to me was the fact that if he had of remembered to actually log off his computer (or password protect his screensaver even) none of this would have happened, and his "they were worse than me and they only got transferred" claim about a couple doing it on a desk in the office.
