Peace Right. Cut off your nose to spite your face. What happened to voting with your wallet? -- There is no such thing as too much vacation, but I would wager that there is such a thing as too little. |

| reply to NetAdmin Voting with your wallet is not good for some people's stock portfolios. Oh, they talk about it in a feeble attempt to make a point, but complain about it when it is put into practice.

Peace Right. Cut off your nose to spite your face. What happened to voting with your wallet? A specific internet vendor and NO internet at all are 2 different things. Very, very few would go without any internet access no matter what they say here. I am sure that point was obvious. To most anyway. -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. ..

join:2003-07-30 Maineville, OH | reply to hayabusa3303 Actually, no. I was being quite sarcastic because others here seem to be the ones who have such a stake in these telcos. I would happily go to my local coffee shop to pay bills. Or do it from work. Whichever.

I am sure that point was obvious. To most anyway. From what I can gather in previous discussions like this, you are a "let the market decide" and "vote with your wallet" disciple. Now you are actively discouraging someone from that course of action?
That disconnect is quite obvious, except for some. -- There is no such thing as too much vacation, but I would wager that there is such a thing as too little. |
