Washington D.C. lost decades of drunk driving convictions when faulty breathalyzer machines were uncovered Tuesday. Thousands of drivers will be cleared of DUI charges. Like all Kennedys, Teddy Kennedy's reputation continues to improve the longer he's gone. 
Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg was named Time magazine's Man of the Year. He ended espionage as we know it. Nowadays if James Bond wants to know the secrets of another government he simply goes onto their Facebook page and waits for them to spill their guts.
