Gagged again:
I really appreciate where you are coming from, but 'what is better ' is open to interpretation. Personally, I don't think McDonalds makes better burgers than the fish & chip shop !! In a high pressure environment, like the states, you might want a McDonalds (fast and bad for you), but does Australia need it? For Australian conditions, who says that what was made in Australia isn't better? I would've thought that Dick, as quick as he is to beat the ozzie marketing drum on his own products, would've been very keen to package the oz system and SELL IT TO THE YANKS, not vice versa. He even bags AsA for tendering for an Hawaiian tower!
More to the point, it's the total disregard for, and subversion of, the normal change process that really grates. He might've got it in without a peep if he had done it properly.
