The farcical effort to preserve a 17,250-square-foot edifice to domestic decadence erected by a 20th Century robber baron who amassed a huge fortune by defacing a huge swath of the American West stumbles onward. An angel investor has agreed in principle to relocate the decaying structure as the well-lawyered do-gooders who’ve prevented its demolition for five years threaten perpetual legal action.

As if we didn’t all know about it anyway, experts in corporate governance insist that Apple should disclose whether or not Steve Jobs had a liver transplant if he returns to work as CEO.
