    I find it ironic that the people who post about Big Companies and their evils use the internet using computer chips made by one of the largest companies in the world (Intel) , and often by by Apple (the largest company in the world ) or software by Microsoft (ditto) and the Cloud is largely financed by Venture Capitalists..


    If they had the courage of their convictions, we would never hear from them as bicycle powered computers don't exist...

    I saw Countryfile when that crazy woman with cowpat hives was on.
    She convinced Julia Bradbury to stand under the hives unprotected
    Needless to say the presenter was stung in the face just below the eye
