via Twitter, Timmis asserts "All of the content (images, lessons, videos, etc...) is my own and I am working hard on figuring out a good format." - I call bullshit.

Then, when every last cent Of their money was spent, The Fix-it-Up Chappie packed up And he went. And he laughed as he drove In his car up the beach, "They never will learn. No. You can't teach a Sneetch!"

Guess the part where the US Division of smARtMAKER had closed 2 weeks earlier was irrelevant.  Guess it's back to the condo Dimitri purchased on eBay that he never paid taxes on

Original post:Received a message that smARtMAKER Lab Orlando will be closing it's doors this Friday - Unverified to date and if true, I wonder how many makers will lose their prepaid membership fees...

Ever wondered who those key Arduino employees were and why they left Massimo and his successful factory in Italy to pursue untold fame and fortune with smARtMAKER?  So did I.

I will give Dimitri points for creativity, why going through the effort of actually hiring employees when you can just pretend? Do it the smARtMAKER way instead!

Rosa Maria Sonja Albino - Dimitri's sister and recent graduate of the University of Turin as a Professional Educator 

Really looking forward to what she will be teaching her students... I always thought there was a Standard of Ethics for Teachers

Maria Teresa Comoglio - Dimitri's mother

I can only imagine how proud she is of her son, such honour he must bring to the family name.

Mattia Revello - Fiance of the esteemed Rosa Maria Sonja Albino

What a great way to bond, defrauding 1000's of people for close to a $1 million if you add up campaigns across the board

Renato Albino - Dimitri's brother and also a Professional Educator

There is a disturbing pattern of teachers trusted with the molding of our young involved in what is to become one of the best documented cases of deceptive marketing in Open Source history

"Diego" he is not yet flushed all the way out - but his clock is ticking. Why does it matter who is in the picture?  

Because it sets the stage for a mountain of lies and insanity that has dragged on for over a year.

Because Dimitri Albino and Harold Timmis have lied and deceived thousands of people in that year with their contrived histories.

Because the people who are being targeted now are teachers and students - Just like his brother and sister (except with ethics) People that are invested in his false promises.

Because the truth is stranger than fiction, there is no logic to anything that has happened over the past year except flat out greed; and that is contemptible.
