PwC: rotten to the core or just plain stupid?

I hope that my good friend Vinnie Mirchandani doesn't take offense to the title of this post. PwC is his alma mater in a past life. However, events at Satyam in India, which have not received the attention they deserve in the US, have taken a decidedly weird or comic...
