“Just $1,000 to Prop 8 now his legacy”
 Intolerable Views or Just Intolerance?

An Internet firestorm forced a prominent Silicon Valley chief executive to step down Thursday. We report that Brendan Eich resigned from Mozilla, the organization behind the Firefox web browser, after critics attacked a six-year-old $1,000 donation he made in support of the 2008 California ballot initiative to ban gay marriage, Proposition 8. The record of the donation surfaced on the Internet not long after Mr. Eich, who invented JavaScript and helped start Mozilla, was appointed CEO late last month. "While I disagree with his beliefs @BrendanEich gave us JavaScript and helped build Mozilla & Netscape. Just $1,000 to Prop 8 now his legacy," noted one Twitter observer. In other Silicon Valley news, a brand-new HBO comedy from Mike Judge shows how techies on screen are America's new rags-to-riches fantasy figures.
