:: on mindless giant corporations ::

"..some worshipped the mathematics because it provided a refuge from thought and from feeling.."

-- from The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck

maybe that's why i hate math. ha. but isn't that so true? sometimes in corporations, people are so specialised that they dunno what they're actually contributing to. some spend half their lifetime contributing their part to a bigger whole that they wouldn't have approved of.
