Ramsey, you be in deep cah-cah now lad. Waded into the political swamp with predictable results from Maurice (lovely, chaotic rant M!), doug just flipped a little grenade over the fence, and when the pooch gets off the golf course, I'd say watch your ankles. Could be a tough April. Fascinating little development over on the Q Motley thread for you non-AOL fellers. Seems the Motley thought police got all revved up by some dude who complained of off-topic posting of all things. The Official Stinking Badges started lifting posts and issuing reprimands. [it was not me--I've had my attentions briefly diverted by the Internal Revenooers.] Anyway, the MF officials are now posting to the Q board telling them to get back on topic! Seems these well informed jokers don't quite get the Q-LOR-GSTRF connection, and when the topic shifts beyond that (like to IPR's, Q supplier fortunes, general telecommunication developments) well let me tell you there is hell to pay. Now can you imagine if those folks checked in on this thread? Hell, Gregg Powers tenderly throws in a few Imation thoughts, and backs away in mortal fear. Gregg, Imate your heart off--wait till football season starts. Caxton and jlf are even now into the boys of summer, Asia is simmering along nicely, Maurice is due for a major variable pricing thrust, and engineer thinks he's working for CNN. Don't even get me started on chuckiej and candleholder or whomever. Let's hear it for censorship--works every time. Just like outlawing hookers. Cheers, Surfer Mike |
