Re: "Jozef if you want to pollute a board, stick to the Intel thread. "

You're over reacting and have no sense of humor.

I thought it was funny and true.

Steve, off topic! <If you think no woman could be qualified for the job,>

I don't think either of them was insinuating this. And personally speaking, I think Reno was all right as AG. (Maybe it's just because her alma mater is the same as mine.)

That's all I'll say on this.

Re: Tasteless is a better adjective...

Thanks, Steve, I was looking for balanced words but couldn't find them - and you did.

Regards,

Dan

OT OT OT

Hi Steve, very, very well said. I appreciate your level of social responsibility, sensitivity, and awareness on these important issues and on the negative impact of such so-called humor.

RE: "Tasteless is a better adjective. Do either of you have wives or daughters that you'd like to see advance in their careers? If you think no woman could be qualified for the job, you're ignoring many male Attorney Generals whose only qualification for the job was their personal friendship with the President."

I just had a meeting today with a female corporate lawyer who is a personal friend of a woman who headed up one of the best, largest, and most prestigious law firms in high-tech. Anyway, through my contacts, I am seeing some extremely talented women in the legal profession, so, it's quite unfortunate to see deriding comments made on a gender basis. I thought those days were gone, no? On matters like these, AMD and Intel must stick together.

RE: "Jozef if you want to pollute a board, stick to the Intel thread."

Jozef (less any deriding comments) is welcomed on the INTC thread.

My best regards,

Amy J

SteveC:

OFFTOPIC:

Actually Josef didn't take much of a shot at Hillary. As for the one with the blood of around 90 people in Waco on her hands, that's a different story.

I have no problems with a woman in any job including president, just not that woman. Agree with you on Meese BTW.
