You are literally saying people work for a company have an obligation to the shareholders. That is too obvious to be bothered with announcing. The employees take the shareholder's money, so obviously they have an obligation to produce something in return. When I read your words, I think you really mean this is the prime or sole obligation of an employee. I disagree with that. There are many loyalties that compete. Personally, the loyalty to the preservation of my planet is far above loyalty to any company. For example, I would feel a moral obligation to be a whistleblower of actions of a company that was destroying the environment. -- Canadian Mind Products, Roedy Green. http://mindprod.com Again taking new Java programming contracts. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
