MIke, Enron is an example of just what thieving B....s corperates are. Give me a break, it is not your nonsense that backed me off it is how I view myself and how I like to present. I do not mean to denigrate the boats of others and I appologised for that but I don't slip into the stupid category either. In my time I have had six settlements from corporates, phone companies etc. I have taken them on myself and the only reason they have had to pay out settlements is that in general corperate attitude is theft by deciept and I am good at catching them.


Uhhh I hope we both realize that I wasn't trying to say that every corporation are model citizens. That said, even in Enron's case, it was a handful of very corrupt people who were in very powerful positions that bought the whole thing down. I'd suspect that more were involved than were actually charged however in the context of the company that handful tainted many thousands of honest people who worked hard, all for naught. Surely you don't think HC discontinuing the H20 places them in the Enron league.

Your self righteous offence and defence of corperate strategy is vacuous and pathetic because at no time was the finger pointed at you and or the work you do. You chose to be offened for all corporates and if you think average corporate behaviour is honest, you are naive.


I'm not offended for all corporates but I will defend myself when people make stupid statements to which I am part of the sub-set. As for corporate honesty - believe it or not - I have been around the block once or twice and even when I have had a run-in with another company (I think it's a fact of life with everybody from time to time), in all situations it has been a case of an honest screw up or lack of communication that is the root of the problem. I'd suggest that out and out dishonesty is actually quite rare.

I hope you are happy to Mike, but do you know what, I think you are too angry to be happy.


Thanks for the diagnosis Mr Freud. Actually most people who know me personally (face to face) have a very different opinion. Thanks for the sentiment anyway - believe me - I am very content and I don't loose any sleep over being annoyed about anything.

Cheers,
Tiger Mike
