Not that I'd put any weight behind it, but I've also been told by someone
who might be in a position to know (after a few drinks - which could make
it either more or less truthful) that Chase was more responsible for
killing Scout, and that Idealab isn't really to blame. Of course, there
are enough reasons to trash Idealab already, that throwing one more on the
list doesn't make that big a difference.
