BILL GATES SLIPS UP

  12 February 2000


Even the wealthiest man in the world makes the occasional mistake. 

Okay, so it's not hot off the press, but when Bill was out in Whistler last winter he did fall flat on his face and get a bloody nose.  And did his money comfort him then and tell him to put his head between his knees?

No, it didn't.  His money did pay for the holidays of 300 of this staff, but that's no reason not to take some vicarious pleasure in the knowledge that he is mortal after all!
