Foundation, that's silly! It's no use having a dead customer. Empires need LIVE customers. I note that there's no QUALCOMM, or Globalstar, or RoamAD, or ZenBu logo on the dead baby. But even the Pizza Hut, McDonalds, and Pepsi, non-food merchants wouldn't want to sponsor the results of their "food" if eaten to excess. I'm pleased to report that my efforts to create a global empire are continuing successfully and though my dearly beloved grandfather had to leave China in 1923 when things got too hot there, with his good efforts at Virtuous Values empire being ignored by foolish maniacs in Korea, Japan and China, my efforts so far in China are going well. But they are trying to get their own thieving TD-SCDMA ideas going, instead of sensible and ready-to-go CDMA2000, which would enable them to rule the world of mobile cyberspace and earn umpty$billion. Instead, they'll do their own silly thing with stolen intellectual property and TD-SCDMA which nobody else around the world will buy. The implication that dead children is good for business is dopey. If Israel nukes Tehran, that'll be a LOT fewer customers for me. That's not good. If Tehran nukes Israel, that's even worse. Imagine how bad it would be for sales if North Korea nukes Japan, Japan nukes China, China nukes Taiwan and the USA and the USA nukes China and North Korea. My CDMA market would be a real mess. While it's great fun to nuke people and invade Taiwan, killing all and sundry, it's not really conducive to good business. Heck, I paid for the USA to invade Iraq [not that I was in favour of that attack] and they didn't even award the cellphone business to CDMA suppliers. They gave it to GSM for God'- sake. The GSM Guild laughs up their sleeve at the USA but they got the business! That's crazy. That's not how you run an empire. Sponsors aren't going to sponsor invasions and empire if the business goes to competitors. Mqurice
