That reminds me of a story recently in the Wall Street Journal where this
furniture manufacturer filed a trade complaint against China for dumping,
and then turns around and imports 40% of their furniture from that country.

Basically, these corporate executives are nothing but hypocrites that talk
out of both sides of their mouths -- and SCO is the poster child of that.
