Unwashed masses...give me a break! Shall we all go back to biblical times just so you can be a matyr? Oh, my....no. I sell my work in the real world. (If I am feeling martyred, it is because of real world problems cutting into the tourist money that is so absolutely necessary to life, in my area.) Oh dear Poppi equating what is a practiced business procedure (brainstorming = private forum) to 'the cells of terrorists, who reside in my area, could not have done what they did to the WTC" is extreme to say the least. If we are speaking, strictly of business, Helen...Have you read, heard spoken of the insider trading that went on right before the attacks? "Betting" on a huge drop in the market...in aviation, insurance, and finance ...up 90% over what has been normal for decades. I do believe that some "brainstorming" was involved in that, don'cha know? Afterall, what is "insider" trading?
