Ain't no thang Peter. I just get pissed off when we get all emotional and
sappy about something that ain't emotional and sappy. We're talking
technology and money - period and some people will play an emotional
situation to the hilt. That's BS - period.

Now, having said that, let the emotions pour forth. Still, I'm really
feeling bad about people out of work or about to loose whatever jobs they
might still have.

I know people, as do you, flipping God Damn burgers or delivering pizza now.
Whay shit that! They once were good engineers with masters degrees or
whatever. Certainly, none of them had MBA's. They're off scott free but for
those having shot themselves in their worthless heads or who are, unlikely,
about to be locked up but because they have too much money to keep them out
of jail.

I watch people making one third of what they made two years ago. It makes me
sick just as our greedy bastard leaders make me sick. Singapore, China,
Taiwan, The Rock - it don't make a difference as we're all in this together
but still carping personal crap.

So, let's get on with it and start cooperating for the right reasons, if
there are any. My book talks to design for manufacturing through concurrent
engineering. Doesn't concurrence mean cooperation?
