I have to be honest (donning flame-retardant suit) Meg & Billy are starting to look like saints compared to this nut job.

I won't flame you on that. I think Meg and Bill are just trying to meet investor expectations for profit with some rather poor decisions. A totally different situation from WP.

Lol, thanks, I see it the same way, a business that has made poor decisions. I suppose its not a fair comparison in the sense that WP isn't a business anyway. The way people go for eBay's jugular on the WP boards, however, suggests that they actively 'compare' the leadership/management decisions of the two. In my mind, no comparison. I don't like the decisions made at eBay, cringe at the money I spend, but I see a return on my investment every month and I do have some confidence that its being run by BUSINESS people. Not egomaniacal boinktards that are using pets for staff.
