You must think I am one of the Internet Quasimodos

No, I don't think any such thing. You know I prefer my glasses half full to half empty. There was a time when "they" would have spewed that stuff without the slightest concern that some might not appreciate it. Now they recognize, albeit belatedly, that they can't be so cavalier. I prefer to look at that as a small step in the right direction.

P.S.

The Corporate giant was probably convinced at the start of the idea by one of the infiltrated agents of lunacy.

Perhaps you can take some satisfaction from knowing that "one of the infiltrated agents of lunacy" will not be getting his Christmas bonus this year.

Expose themselves for what they are, charlatans selling snake oil. (I do not mind if they want to consume it, but quit promoting it.)

Its about time somebody spoke up for the snake. First it was the oily snake; two thousand years later its snake oil. Any false bill of goods is termed snake oil. I just wish everybody would get off the God damn snake's back. I'm going out to dinner; elsewise I shalt surely smite...especially since someone has knocked the SOLON ** MANAGER ** sign off of my desk. I don't like being slighted. For a slight of that caliber, I could wipe out half of a tribe (after first checking for foreskins to be certain they are not one of my own people displaced as slaves, prisoners, lost souls in a big world, etc.)

The Masons certainly simplified things with a secret handshake, etc. checking for foreskins?! Oh Brother! (though I have to admit: in dangerous times, it is not a secret that would alert the authorities, while those in the know would definitely be able to identify one another during normal social intercourse...).
