Chinese quality = GARBAGE
"RichA" wrote in message
... We've all heard the horror stories, about how formerly prestigious brands from the U.S. are now putrid (Fram oil filters, Rubbermaid, as examples of products that had severe cost-cutting imposed by Walrmart and the like) mostly because of the dumping of inferior Chinese rubbish. Not the stuff like name-brand cameras, whose production is controlled by JAPANESE technicians (though there have been quality lapses, it does not appear to relate to Mainland Chinese production facilities), but the real JUNK from China, designed and made there. I have 2 UPS units for my computers. One of them stopped working. Why? The CHINESE made 12v lead acid battery not only stopped charging, its case burst open!! I hear their CRAP is now appearing as counterfeit parts in cars. Just imagine the carnage that is to come... Speaking of junk, something that's truly shocking is the state of the River Citarum, in Indonesia: http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=...N&hl=en&tab=wi Just mind blowing! |

The Oriental countries simply do not care about pollution and land and water degradation, hence, most of the water sources and land in Asia are horribly polluted. All they care about is money, pure and simple. |

All they care about is money, pure and simple. I'm not sure where it comes from, but there is also a huge area containing six million tonnes of plastic in the North Pacific off the coast of CA (The Pacific Gyre), which is twice the size of Texas. And that's just what's floating, I dread to think what else is dumped at sea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_P..._Garbage_Patch Makes you wonder whether low fish stocks are really caused due to over-fishing, or whether it's due pollution.. |

No. That is the problem. There are no absolute "right and wrong" neither are there any moral absolutes. Can you give me any absolute "right" or "wrong"? I bet I can construct a scenario where it is not absolute. -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ |

Only if it kills the host - you don't have to eat it all. By mutual consent, you could agree to just take a few slices or a non-lethal amputation, and share a BBQ. |

Reminds me of the one where a wife back from a psychology course and her hubby says I bet you can't make me happy and sad at the same time. So she thinks for a while and says. "Out of all of your friends you have the biggest penis and are the best in bed." |
