>>I don't know if it's just me but this feels a bit weird. To me it just looks like they did'nt find an individual. So starting from there I guess that the guys in charge did a reunion and somebody pointed this out "OK so far we have'nt found someone for the person of the year" then followed a movement of panick. Then a marketing wizz must have given that solution.

>And if my memory serves me at all, this isn't the first time they took this sort of exit. Wasn't the PC once a person of the year?

But I guess that the subtitle "Yes even you the morons" suggested by a trainee in the marketing department was rejected.
