The WSJ, commenting on the BAX-Gambro deal, paraphrased something that Stephen MacMillan, the former CEO of Stryker Corp., said a few years ago.

WSJ (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323901604578159562802281322.html ):

Stephen MacMillan (#msg-38038167):

the foremost piece of B.S. ever promulgated
in any area of human knowledge!”
