Yes, and I have some windmills here if you'd care to tilt at them :-)

I too gave up Marathons as a protest, but I like them too much so gave in
eventually. I have started buying branded clothes (Caterpillar, Timberland,
Levi), in an attempt to reduce the large amount of crap I've worn in the
past to a small collection of good stuff that will last - I think it's
working.

Globalisation is here to stay, get used to it.
