indoor air quality

It's been pretty obvious for quite a while that money isn't, in fact, what drives most companies. From obvious inefficiencies in processes to employee relationships, it's clear that maintaining various social norms and fictions are far more important than "the almighty dollar".

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
