New Re: There's folly in pursuing Boeing's 'dreamliner'
Boeing is going to piss around and fiddle about until Airbus creams them.

They should be selling 737s and 717s by the bushel basket. They are cheap, proven, and profitable.

Name ONE merger/buyout that has succeeded in CorpAm.

Imric's Tips for Living
  • Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
  • Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
  • Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.


Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

Sorry, that too, is a disaster. God is hung up on contracts (Father Neslongate) while El Repulicanos are mired in negotiations with media-focus groups.

My God, I've become Ashton now that I'm published!

New But they got what they wanted: Power...
...wealth, recognition.

The financial, mental and physical health of the nation were never part of the program. Being 'hung up' or 'mired' are just excuses for choices made.

You just aren't cynical enough.
