I never said I agreed with him or considered him a marketing expert.

Mr MBA?

What I am saying, however, is that you have presented nothing but your usual bile.

I am usually a patient man, but folk like you and inode present a particular challenge of bile suppression.

In any case, I at least made the case that these companies ran themselves over tactically, rather than presenting the simplistic view that all their problems are caused by the unions.

To be clear, I never considered myself to be a "marketing expert". I am married to one, however, and that has always met my needs.

I think Al's perspective is that of a salesman, which as is typical, is very top-line oriented. Running a business involves far more than sales. If you're losing money on every sale, selling more isn't the solution.
