Charles, are you on another continent or another planet? Corporations in
general do what the top management wants, and top management is either
concerned with profit or what the last saleman said.
I totally don't buy the idea that most corporations give a shit about the
happiness of employees and usenet, unless their job requires it. ISPs and
universities care, but most businesses don't.
