Yup – often making money at the expense of impoverished people further along the supply chain – looking forward to seeing “Greed”, the latest Steve Coogan film, partly based on Philip Green.

It can be good, or at least okay as long as it serves a worthwhile purpose. If you are a backpacker, for example, the latest light weight technology— like a two ounce stove as opposed to a one pound stove— makes a lot of sense. Even more so when you are on the edge of turning 77. 🙂 But novelty for novelty sake, maybe not so good. Especially if it is an addiction and not an occasional detour. Thanks, Dave. –Curt
