3. I don't disagree one bit with your analysis
We may well be of the same generation; certainly we seem to have experienced and bemoaned the same boneheaded moves over the decades.

I simply disagree with this observation of yours:

... NCR is basically saying that the state has nothing to offer in terms of tech companies or technological growth.

This, in and of itself, says nothing about NCR's perspective on the area, and everything about NCR's desire to turn a quick, dirty buck. Without, BTW, even the courtesy of informing Dayton and/or Ohio about the decision. Moreso, in fact, with the despicable rudeness and insolence they've exhibited toward us of late.

I don't think we disagree about that, either. But, for the sake of those not familiar with Dayton who might have stumbled across this thread, it's important to note the uniqueness, and the tragedy of this specific move. It's (weakly) analogous to moving Times Square to Jersey because... what? More Jerseyites frequent the place? The real estate is cheaper? The governor of New Jersey made someone a sweetheart deal?

For now, I don't give a rat's ass about the ineptitude of Dayton's leadership. For now, my posts are a mere FUCK YOU to the once-great NCR and the goddamned con men who now run it.



Now, then... do we know each other perchance?
