They own everything and do everything, Cots to coffins. The Goliath Corporation regard individuals as 'units' from whom they can eke a profit for three score years and ten....

Wow, thanks, Penny!
That was just a sarcastic post of mine, but your reply topped me perfectly... i loved reading your post - and your descript of the Thursday Next novels :-)

No longer venting and in a better mood now,
