Timothy Franz Geithner [pronounced /ˈgaɪtnər/] (born August 18, 1961) is the 75th and current United States Secretary of the Treasury, serving under President Barack Obama. He was previously the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Geithner's position includes a large role in directing the nation's economic response to the financial crisis which began in 2007. Specific tasks include directing how $350 billion of Wall Street bailout money is allocated. Geithner's nomination came under fire due to his failure to pay $34,000 in overdue taxes. Geithner received Senate confirmation, but he was criticized for not following the rules of the Internal Revenue Service, which is a child agency of the Treasury Department he now oversees. Memberships:
* Center for Global Development (Board of Directors)
* Council on Foreign Relations
* Economic Club of New York (trustee)
* Group of Thirty
* Bank for International Settlements (chairman)

Edit for: It's interesting that you call for people to document whatever they bring up and then end your post by bringing up how you felt certain parts were corny w/o documenting which parts you specifically thought were corny.
Anyway I'm hoping for some good research to come out of this thread too but the way you phrased that and the tone you used really rubbed me the wrong way.

SonicInifinity congratulations on successfully derailing the thread with your pompous and arrogant declaration of what it is that you expect. Why don't you let the thread run its own course. Nobody has any obligation to take the time and painstakingly document every little thing, obviously!
