Just a brief, uplifting note on which to end the week ...
A few days ago I noted the hypocrisy of an outfit called Mine Safety Appliances (MSA) which proudly proclaimed their employees to be their "Greatest Global asset" on their web site, while kicking 65 of those 'great global assets' out on the street until the Army finished tested a new helmet design.
I am pleased to announce the occurrence of a genuine miracle at MSA. Although the Army has not completed testing, MSA has decided to reverse itself and put those 65 folks back to work anyway. I don't know if someone there reads the blog - maybe they just got around to reading their own web site for the first time. At any rate, MSA is getting doing the right thing and 65 Vermonters are the better for it.
