BBC trending now article: "Nigerian engineer handed written test at New York airport" http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-39127617 (https://archive.is/Kg5LD archive)

Original tweetstorm by the affected immigrant Celestine Omin: (https://twitter.com/cyberomin/status/835997221300621312 tweets, https://archive.is/5JL8d archive) Notice Simon Sharwood, reporter for The Register, wanted to know more.

Scott Martin (https://twitter.com/hex/status/836717156595294212 tweet, https://archive.is/ifIgx) appears to have brought this to the attention of Kolbe (https://twitter.com/Wikiland/status/836944310306238465 tweet, https://archive.is/tRtbN) on Twitter. I noticed Dan Murphy's re-tweet of Kolbe's re-tweet of Martin. :)
