If you knew all this and still thought it was a good thing that TYCO took
over I sure don't want to be around for the stuff that is bad in you're
view.
I don't know what shape DSC was in financially prior to the TYCO purchase. I
knew several of the reps back then and they never said or acted like
anything was wrong. They were still driving their Lexus cars around so I was
never aware of any problems. Being a private company at the time meant they
didn't have to disclose that information. Even if DSC was in trouble back
then, it still doesn't change the fact that things still haven't improved
for me in any way under TYCO's ownership of DSC (or CEM, or Kantech, or
Software House, or AD). But I guess you're going to tell me how wrong I am
about that too.


> Why would you think I live in Canada?

I guess it would bug me too if someone thought I was Canadian. That is not
what I am "aboat". I thought I smelled a puff of something coming through
the screen when I read those posts of yours. I know our northern neighbors
don't like passing laws against that roll your own stuff, so I thought maybe
you were up there sparking up. It was the only thing I could come up with at
the time to explain or make any sense out of what you were posting. Notre
principal outil pour communiquer. On peut donc s'en servir comme étalon afin
