hi mmbg,
when were you removed from the discussion? which discussion do you mean? the one in which people talk about the inevitable future of technology?
i recommend you adopt my position: the best conversation is wherever I am! for you, that is here. for ramsey it's the DD board. etc. if someone is interested in joining you, they will. if they don't, it's no skin off your nose.
if you are talking about the feel-good stuff, you should have figured by now that it wasn't constructive to engage in such a conversation. what good has it done anyone. business is about generating free cash flows. if there isn't a soul on your board discussing that, you are in a different sort of conversation.
