So whose fault is it that these places are there to take advantage of human nature? Wal-Mart or ours? I'd bet money it's ours. Yup, you’re right, Gordo.

Always. Mall-Wart is there capitalize on the desperate human need to save $1 and get everything from garden supplies to prescription drugs, and every in between, under one roof. What used be called a "mall" is now called a "SuperCentre". There will always be a market for made in Chinese sweatshop crap, Ken. Always.

And they'll always be around. Or is it they'll always be aflat...? Bah... never mind :wink: And as for Wal-Mart - they're only here because they think there's a market for in being here. No one's holding a gun to anyone's head and forcing them to shop there. You want Wal-Mart to go away? Stop people from shopping there. Flat earthers have been around for ever.

Or maybe it's just disappointing. Either way, not good. Flea, I DO love to see corporate bullies get slapped down like that. Especially a soul-destroyer like Mall-Wart. They haven't been able to pull the shenanigans up here that they're known for down there, but I still think the government should have stopped them at the border.

And my question for flat earthers has always been, if we see the moon as a big round ball, why on earth would we think our planet is something else? I love that the scientist asked what shape exactly the earth would be. So bizarre. <em>Flea's last blog post..<a href='http://thegoodflea.com/2008/03/just-one-last-one-okay.html'>Just One Last One, Okay?</a></em> In my husband’s business law class for grad school he learned that America is one of the very few, if not only, countries where there is no trademark on the yellow smiley which was made popular in the 60’s.

Idiocy and stupidity (two very distinctive states of being) abound. The truly disheartening thing in all of this is that these are just the tip of the iceberg.

We know the earth is square. :lol: I was flabbergasted when the lady had to remove the nipple rings. I see Gloria what's her name coming to bat for her. We all know feds can't really be sued don't we? :???: Oh my gosh the debate was unbelieveable. We know the earth is square. :lol:
