It was one person's fair analysis of just why SI can never be what it once was. Which is to say, the web is now more like SI once was, and SI is no longer that, nor can it be. If its been bought cheap, then like used construction equipment in Spain a few years ago, one can polish it up, grind some extra profit out of it, and that's about it. Maybe in a very small way like Jay buying up the garbage heaps of old mining claims, because those folks left money on the ground to be had. I of course would like to see the very special revamp that proves the foregoing wrong, not because I care after they've reneged on literally years of promises made to some of the membership (unforgive-able), but I like being surprised.
Why they would delete that, is both ironic and beyond silly. If the delete came from the ownership on high, we have a very petty captain steering his own ship, and if it came from lower down, we have very clueless mid- shipmen running the engine room.
Let's watch and brief <g> |
