This all is just jotted down from the screen without
much effort in confirming some of the numbers. It's
not _really_ a fair comparison, differing market
shares (... so I didn't find weapons of mass destruction;
we still did the right thing -- now it's time to start
stealing oil and sending in drugs, alcohol, guns, rock
and roll, and our industrial wastes so the poor will
have something to complain about besides the Bhagdad
Symphony playing music by dead guys, badly).

IMNSHO, a good argument could be made that Shimadzu is
over at the Krispy Kreme end of the playing field, along
with Perkin Elmer (I just heard that Kris isn't doing so
well -- donut sales are down; I guess all those new security
guys are consuming yogurt, green salads and apples, instead of
coffee and donuts :-)

        a day. Teach him to discover the answer and you
        have a life-long alcoholic wise-ass who spends
        his time explaining where the phrase "stupid
        queer" came from -- remember, that word is gender
        neutral and therefore politically correct .-)
