If there is no honour among thieves, you would think CEOs would want to differentiate themselves. I used to pay $10 per month for an online gaming community that made its owners very rich. The new owners now have four times the users, but raised the price to $12.95 and introduced extra fees for some areas. That is the difference between honourable capitalism and milking it. There should be a way for users to reward restraint, or a realisation that profit alone is not success.

That interview is tomorrow. Rounding up published work, referees, and thoughts of teaching. Had a "good luck for tomorrow" telephone call last night, made me check the itinerary just a few times ... apologies for not catching up with anyone lately.
