Story

Steve Jobs was defending Apple's environmental policies when he got in the following good joke:

3. The group says Apple uses prison or forced labor in the recycling programs.

“This completely untrue. We don’t use any prison or forced labor in our recycling programs or anywhere else,” said Jobs.

“It’s been suggested we do this in software development,” joked Jobs, which brought laughter from the crowd.

This Jobs fellow sounds like he may be a good public speaker.

At which Jobs unveiled, the new iEnforcer security robots Apple had built... at which point Jobs also informed environmentalists that they were still in Beta, so they'd have to sign NDAs as the Robots beat them to a bloody pulp. Apple legal is ready and waiting to enforce those NDAs as we speak.
