Olive oil virginity is in question today on Marketplace. We look at a recent study that found many of those top-shelf oils at the grocery store are not as virginal as we think. Also on the show: Was Lockerbie bomber released as part of a business deal? Patent applications jumped up during recession. Facebook follows you with ‘Places.’ What GM’s IPO means. And Intel and McAfee, combining computer chips and security. Plus, these are the songs we played on the show:

  • Sidewalk – Built to SpillBuy
  • Yeah – Eliot LippBuy
  • African Rhythms – Jay DeeBuy
  • In Your Deck – D-TensionBuy
  • A New Career In A New Town – David BowieBuy
