Yeah I've never liked the bastard. Always banging on about peace and harmony and responsible living and free speech...... ... Get Bent, DL! I don't want any of your well-observed and properly-reasoned truisms thankyouverymuch. I rather like living amongst the barbarian hordes in the camera-infested, wanna-be-middle-class, gadget-wanking, image-centred, take-make-and-throw-away, heartless, dirty, drug-ridden, poorly-educated, traffic-congested, money-wasting, planet-killing, no-sunshine, imperially-deficient, hypocritical, morally-vacant, infernal sh!t-house that is the UK. ... ... ... ... Hang on

You cant equate Thai Buddhism to Tibetan Buddhism, same basic religion completely different philosophy. But its nice to see yet another rampant corporate entity putting money over anything like morals or ethics.. Apple "think different.. unless it threatens our bottom line". |

Can anyone name a company dealing in China, which handles what the Chinese government considers 'dissident' information, and hasn't given in to the Communists? Anyone? I don't agree with it, but it's their back yard. |

There are different ways of "dealing" with them. I imagine organised crime operates quite differently to Google, for example. Or not, if you believe our friend. |
