I can see that one modern business tactic has been talked about for some time now. From where I sit looking back at history, and correct me if I'm wrong, everyone(given the opportunity) will attempt to "co-op" everyone else if it gives them an advantage. The last time I checked the law of the economic jungle ain't been repealed, so it's always a good idea to keep the fangs, nails and intelligence gathering as sharply focus as possible, regardless of yer country/cultural origins, eh? Heh!! So I can understand L.D.'s need for secrecy(amongst other things). And as for us U.S. citizens looking down our pointy little noses at others(and oh, we don't have a patent on THAT one most human of flaws).....well.....we all be pure-bred mutts in this society, so for any of us to point fingers at others is just a prime example of how the creator must have one hell of a sense of humor...... ;-) I now get down off the podium.
Back to VLNC. Where are those p.o.'s????? Playing with fanciful earnings numbers and talking about N.I. stockpiling are fine, but I want a reality check of p.o.'s. THAT's all I want to hear about from them(welll, ALMOST, heh!), and using the 2/04 forum will do just fine......
Let's see how it goes..
