Once upon a time popular music started with an introduction that had no relationship to the central melody. "Cut to the chase", sucks. Likewise the demeanor of contemporary society; patience is lost on a pathetically ill equipped 'instant' coffee generation, completely dependent upon grocery store shelves to sustain themselves. Beware the empty shelves. What then?

In this instance, one needs to follow the chain of events to validate the evidence offered.

A great opportunity to jump off the 'instant' bandwagon, and begin to think clearly.

How about summarizing the facts so we can get the point and decide if it’s worth looking into further? Insulting FReepers as “instant coffee” doesn’t help; getting the core point across does. All I see so far is vague over-accusations. Look, we’re inundated with information; providing a bit of filtering helps garner interest in pursuing the point further. If you can’t be bothered to summarize the facts, I’ve got other crisis to handle.
