    It said that it failed in it's goals but it does depend on what the goals actually are though. This was an American one with a main goal of reducing corporate health coverage expenses.

    Our goal is to give the opportunity for our employees to access helath options they might not otherwise get. Just by it's very existance we succeed.

    Your going to be busy Oakie.... "Lets do this shit" has just gone full Clarkistanian....

    I bet even the Russians don't record "allegations"... I'm just hoping this article is badly written so the real deal isn't as bad as it sounds.

    This is important. Deep vein thrombosis (aka economy class syndrome) is not retricted to air travel. It's a problem in call centres and anywhere else people sit for extended periods.

    I used to think about this while reading KB at my desk during breaks.
