RE: Corporate! I

Corporate!


I couldn't help notice that another religion thread bit the dust, which I think is a good thing. It's fairly common knowledge that both religion and politics will spark arguments and ill feelings. I know that corporations spend lots of money on research before they finally find that special recipe or methodology. It was grossly unfair of me to characterize all of them in a single generalization that spanned decades. The bottom line, I think, anyway, is that the peasants of today have a far better standard of living than even that of the kings of the not too distant past. C'mon, how many minstrels can you pack in an iPod?

I suppose politics/religion is neither proper for the thread, nor the forum. I understand it's no-holds-barred over at SETI, if you really feel the need to mince words. :)

No-holds-barred indeed, but

No-holds-barred indeed, but that guy with the windows registry keys bit the dust... I think his threads disappeared from here too, as well as from QMC

I appologize for my part in the politics, I was just trying (again) to be funny with my 'post it' message. It fell flat (again) and took off on it's own agenda. Guess I'll leave the comedy to Chuck.

I've checked out threads over there and some remind me of a Pandora concert. I'm too weary to mosh in the pit. ;^)

It was quite an interesting discussion, you could always try to start a thread for it and see what happens.

Thank you but no. I'm just going to 'lurk' back here at the corner booth and watch the world pass by for awhile.

Mia culpa, mia culpa...it is

Mia culpa, mia culpa...it is I that raised the ugly thread of politics, law and economics and wove a chord upon which I brought the demise of the hallowed former site. Thus, I have learned my lesson. "Never more. Never more.
