And we're going to hold you to it. Go beat your drum on a power-lifting forum. We're not interested and chances are even the most clueless of us know more about the product you are talking about than you know about anything to do with the CF. Army.ca Staff

OK - I chewed on this for a day and it's still bugging me. You are RTFO. Talk about Henny Penney...  Neighborhood Watch programs are generally touted by the feds and sponsored by local police agencies. I formed a Block Watch in a community I lived in. Firearms laws are a separate matter...

So, redeye - to RG's point, you simply discount this? http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/news/state/witness-martin-attacked-zimmerman-03232012 I assume because it is a Fox affiliate? I agree with you in that, on it's face - this was a senseless shooting. On the other hand, it appears that you...

Interesting Executive Order. The conspiracy theorists are going nuts; I'm not sure what to make of it. It's logical on the face of it (to a degree) but did it really require an EO, vice "regular legislative process"...

Men's Reproductive health up next?? http://www.daytondailynews.com/news/dayton-news/bill-introduced-to-regulate-mens-reproductive-health-1341547.html Read the rest at the link above. From the Dayton Daily News

I can't speak for the rest of the country but there are companies in Phoenix that don't allow tobacco use. Their insurance rates are significantly lower- you agree to that when you are hired and they do testing for tobacco

Of course. We expected nothing less from you.

And of course, she has been portrayed as "just a poor, innocent college student" - nooo, that's not disingenuous... http://www.thomas-purcell.com/2012/03/fluke-is-no-fluke.html

I think your frustration levels will go down significantly once you get that the vast majority of the population simply isn't as enlightened and/or intelligent as you are.

But there's a flip side to that too.... "Hey, let's lay off planting IED's this week. Our spies in camp say the Americans are being very respectful of our religion."

Summer blend contributes less to smog. http://www.theoildrum.com/story/2006/9/13/234043/431 http://blog.gasbuddy.com/posts/Winter-blend-gasoline-rolling-out-drops-in-MPG-possible/1715-422955-413.aspx...

I can say with absolute certainty that they are fairly active at local and state levels. National TP stuff I don't follow very closely; local TP groups interests are too diverse (yet with some commonalities) to coalesce into any kind of cohesive force in my opinion. A Tea Party group in Town A...

And I wasn't trying to wave my resume around - just framing my questions with some context and trying to demonstrate that I am not firmly in anybody's camp, necessarily.

ballz - I think you missed the thrust of my question.  Knowing human greed as we all do, it is not surprising that many CEO's and associated cronies build their empires at the expense of the good of the company. What is curious to me though is that happens so frequently we can generalize that is...

So, why didn't they? Not being argumentative, your post actually made sense to me. But assuming profit is the motive of most of these big companies, and they are being run mostly by Boards, or at least more than one person I'm curious as to why they didn't do what you just suggested. Surely they...
