Manufacturing concerns all over SpinDizzy are performing fine-grained internal audits after a rash of what appears to be embezzlement.\u00a0 Equipment marked as broken, corroded, or otherwise unfit that was to be disposed of as scrap is being found to be in new (or in some cases better than new) condition.\u00a0 Investigators theorize that employees have been diverting equipment from their employers for resale or to send it off world to lower technology areas.<\/p>\n
