plutarch veteran Registered: 10/10/01 Posts: 1385	space time distortion It must have been unconscious genius, musick, because your statement in the form of a question without a question mark was profound. "planned" obsolescence is obsolete. Today, most of what we buy is standard issue junk. You know how they glamorize "used cars" by calling them "pre-owned vehicles". Maybe they should call all those appliances we buy at Walmart "pristine junk".
