| qu1j0t3 | :[ | Apr 13 03:50 |
| schestowitz | these are not even "oil companies" | Apr 13 03:52 |
| schestowitz | like the copyright cartel is no music/film industry | Apr 13 03:52 |
| schestowitz | it should be called oil-extracting industry | Apr 13 03:53 |
| schestowitz | or oil-passing companies | Apr 13 03:53 |
| schestowitz | they don't make oil | Apr 13 03:53 |
| qu1j0t3 | good point | Apr 13 03:53 |
| schestowitz | they mostly do the pipes and the filtering, and enjoy public protection for it | Apr 13 03:53 |
| schestowitz | they use nature's resources and get monopolies on those, like Rockefel;ler didm, that;'s how he got rich, and bought the competition to drive prices higher | Apr 13 03:53 |
| qu1j0t3 | and massive subsidies... | Apr 13 03:53 |
| schestowitz | the music industry is artists | Apr 13 03:55 |
| schestowitz | oil industry does not existl it's usually the outcome of biological degradation, or death | Apr 13 03:55 |
| schestowitz | +oxygen+sun energy | Apr 13 03:55 |
| schestowitz | the energy is mostly derived from the sun, fdirectly or indirectly, so call the Sun the "oil industry" | Apr 13 03:56 |
| schestowitz | Photosynthesis+oxygen for burning make energy, coal, oil.. | Apr 13 03:57 |
| schestowitz | So one way to put it is: | Apr 13 03:57 |
| schestowitz | they have not found a wa to privatise oxygen, yet | Apr 13 03:57 |
| schestowitz | maybe clean air would sell well in industralised parts of China | Apr 13 03:58 |
| schestowitz | But they did manage to privatise and make people "rich" based on their processing of Sun irradiating stuff. | Apr 13 03:58 |

They don't want to talk with me; it's great!!! I just go in, look thoroughly at what I want to see, and leave. If a do get cornered by a sales person, they try to size me up (while being my friend.) So I just tell them I'm a retail analyst for a hedge fund that's looking at their | Apr 13 12:54 |

| schestowitz | "2-3 years is a normal tenure for a CEO at a tech company, so this isn't a sign at all. Actually, when Kovacs started at Mozilla, his plan was to be there for a period like that, and the organization's plan was to bring him in to make the quite challenging turn into the mobile world, which he had quite a bit of previous experience with.

| schestowitz | shipping in the next months, even before Kovacs will actually hand over to his successor. He feels that what he has been hired for was successful, so it's time to move on. Mozilla has grown enough on him though that he will stay around as a member of the board. So he's not even completely leaving the ship. I would say that is actually a good sign after all. :)" | Apr 13 13:17 |
| schestowitz | That's relieving to hear. Iconic figures like Mitchell, Asa, and the French developer whose name I can't recall -- those are the ones whose departure would be worrying. Didn't Eich work for Mozilla until recently or something? Maybe he's still in. And I think Hub from Novell joined Mozilla - he's a good developer -- turned Mono menace Tomboy into Gnote in C++. | Apr 13 13:18 |
