With the murderous fictional African country coup leader Dubaku preparing to sabotage an Ohio chemical plant to fart a noxious cloud of pesticide in the air, the FBI is scrambling to patch the firewall breach (and by “scramble” I of course mean “pound away furiously at keyboards and say things like ‘Keep me in the [...]
