So I was looking at my join date t'other day (yes it's wrong, my original Duff account was registered on the 28th, with another account registered four days before that), and just had a quick think about just how long I've spent here.
I've just turned 20. When I registered I was 14 and a couple of weeks away from starting studying for my GCSEs. Now I'm in my second year at university with a shitty part time job on the side to fund life. I've been on this site for nearly a third of my life. I dunno about anyone else but that's quite scary, particularly when I think what I did then and what I'm doing now. God knows where I'll be in another six years - still on this site no doubt, just with a lot more money and a nicer car (hopefully...).
I dunno why I made this thread. Just wondering if anyone else has ever thought about how much their life has changed in the time they've been shitting over the boards I guess. Any stories?

ps command gives the possibility to display information with custom formatting with the -o options followed by the format specifier list. Show Sample Output
Redirects the contents of your clipboard through a pipe, to a remote machine via SSH.
Using 7z to create archives is OK, but when you use tar, you preserve all file-specific information such as ownership, perms, etc. If that's important to you, this is a better way to do it.
greps using only ascii, skipping the overhead of matching UTF chars. Some stats: $ export LANG=C; time grep -c Quit /var/log/mysqld.log 7432 real 0m0.191s user 0m0.112s sys 0m0.079s $ export LANG=en_US.UTF-8; time grep -c Quit /var/log/mysqld.log 7432 real 0m13.462s user 0m9.485s sys 0m3.977s Try strace-ing grep with and without LANG=C
I've used technicalpickles command a lot, but this one handles whitespaces in filenames. I'm sure you want to create an alias for it :) Show Sample Output
Just a handy way to get all the unique links from inside all the html files inside a directory. Can be handy on scripts etc. Show Sample Output
Handy when you need to create a list of files to be updated when subversion is not available on the remote host. You can take this tar file, and upload and extract it where you need it. Replace M and N with the revisions specific to yours. Make sure you do this from an updated (svn up) working directory.
This one would be much faster, as it's only one executed command.
awk can clear the screen while displaying output. This is a handy way of seeing how many lines a tail -f has hit or see how many files find has found. On solaris, you may have to use 'nawk' and your machine needs 'tput' Show Sample Output
Simple but useful little command to unzip all files in a directory.
Save the script as: sort_file Usage: sort_file < sort_me.csv > out_file.csv This script was originally posted by Admiral Beotch in LinuxQuestions.org on the Linux-Software forum. I modified this script to make it more portable. Show Sample Output
- for .xsession use - Advantages of running a urxvt daemon include faster creation time for terminal windows and a lot of saved memory. You can start new terminals as childs of urxvtd by typing urxvtc. Another advantage is, that background jobs are always owned by the urxvtd and will survive as long the daemon is running.
This command will output 1 if the given argument is a valid ip address and 0 if it is not. Show Sample Output
Files containing ascii art (e.g. with .nfo extension) are typically not correctly reproduced at the command line when using cat. With iconv one can easily write a wrapper to solve this:
if [ -z "$@" ]; then echo "Usage: $(basename $0) file [file] ..."
else iconv -f437 -tutf8 "$@"; fi
exit 0
Beeps on mouse's every move. Bear in mind that, at least on Ubuntu, /dev/input/mice can be read only by root.
I rarely use the system menu to start applications. I use keyboard shortcuts instead. Keyboard shortcuts are convenient time savers. To configure the shortcuts I use gconf-editor or CompizConfig Settings Manager (if I have Compiz turned on). Lately I've been using Chromium as my browser. Since Chromium is under heavy development it occasionally becomes unusable and I have to switch back to Firefox. I was hard-coding the browser command in my keyboard shortcuts. This became problematic with frequent browser hopping. I now use the xdg-open command when defining my keyboard shortcuts. xdg-open opens a file or URL in the user's preferred application. In the metacity keybinging_commands I have
xdg-open http://gmail.com where I used to have
firefox http://gmail.com. Now when switching browsers I don't have to update each keyboard binding command I just change my default browser in Ubuntu by clicking through the menu: System / Preferences / Preferred Applications / Web Browser.
xdg-open is more convenient for this browser hopper.
Infinitely plays beeps with sinusoidally changing sound frequency. Ideal for alarm on an event.
I spent a bunch of time yesterday looking for the xsel package in Cygwin- turns out you can use the /dev/clipboard device to do the same thing. Show Sample Output
If you just want to write or append some text to a file without having to run a text editor, run this command. After running the command, start typing away. To exit, type . on a line by itself. Replacing the >> with a single > will let you overwrite your file. Show Sample Output

The Hendersonville Community Co-op, a community-owned natural and organic grocery store on South Grove Street, has a healthy problem.
Continual growth has not only strained the store's retail space, but also forces employees to handle more volume with less workspace. Now, with a land purchase finalized, the next stage of HCC's relocation and expansion is unfolding.
Reflecting a national trend for food co-ops, HCC is planning to build a new store to better serve its owners and shoppers. Like so many cooperative grocery stores across the country, HCC views expansion as a way to support continued growth in sales and give employees a better work environment.
The proposed new building will have double the retail space of HCC's current location, which is in a leased building on South Grove Street.
As a community-owned business, some of the capital required for the new store comes directly from its owners. An investment campaign launched in the summer of 2012 raised $500,000 of the $800,000 goal of preferred shares, allowing the purchase of the roughly two-acre site on Spartanburg Highway, near the current HCC site.
The land purchase, finalized on Jan. 8, will carry HCC into the next phase of raising the remaining investment needed for its new store construction. HCC is hoping to have a new store built and operating in 2014.
"As the co-op has grown over the last five years, we have worked to expand the retail space and improve offerings to our customers," said Damian Tody, HCC general manager. "We are out of space in our leased building."
While sales numbers have continued to grow, space intensive departments such as the deli have no way to increase kitchen size.
The task ahead is that of financing construction and designing a building destined to be a store that offers more of the products the co-op is known for, such as local produce and natural food products. The new store will feature an expanded deli and eatin dining area as well as a functional community room for workshops and demonstrations.
Satisfying increasing customer demand while keeping a safe and efficient workplace has been a challenge in the current HCC location.
"The new, expanded space will ease that tension," Tody said. "We will be able to create a store that will be fully functional and will be able to meet all of our needs and expectations."

LTU's Greek Leaders at MSU's Greek Week are (L-R in the back row) Emily Graham, James Pattison, Krysta Foster, Liz Artz, Eula Muckleroy, TJ Sullivan (speaker), James Yat Keung Hui, and Christina Milne. In the middle row are Adam Oddo, Moshe Rafailov, Austin Chapman, Jeremy Nafsus, Mitchell McCreadie, Drew Tucker, and Justin Lee. In the front row are Kimberly Klieber, Nicole Pitchford, Meredith Harper, Marilyn Cannell, and Sydney Pea.
Even though alcohol abuse may not be a huge problem the Greek organizations at LTU face on a day-to-day basis, it is still an issue that we all need to be reminded of, Greek or non-Greek, and be ready to do something about it.
On April 2 during Greek Week at Michigan State University, Lawrence Technological University's (LTU) Greek Leaders traveled to East Lansing to hear TJ Sullivan, founding father of the Pi Kappa Phi Fraternity, address the issue of alcohol and member conduct within Greek organizations.
During his presentation, Sullivan put his audience in "what if" situations regarding a Greek member's alcohol abuse. Having to confront a brother or sister of your fraternity or sorority about an issue such as excessive drinking is much harder than you would think. There are a lot of factors to consider when approaching a member of your organization.
"When confronting a brother/sister that is causing problems, one must keep three things in mind: Who (least bias in the situation) will do the confronting, where (not at a bar or someone's property, most likely a public location) to confront, and no matter what replies you get, you must get your message through. This can also be applied to anybody for the rest of your life," James Yat Keung Hui, president of LTU's InterFraternity Council, said by e-mail.
People easily associate drinking as a problem for Greeks for a couple reasons, according to LTU Dean of Students Kevin Finn.
"One reason is because the Greek system is so tight, there are ways to find out if there is a problem because there are people looking out for them. Second, people have stereotypical views about Greeks and big parties. Alcohol abuse is an issue at every college. It is not just a Greek problem. It is a challenge for all students between the ages of 18-24," Finn said.
According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, 1,825 college students between the ages of 18 and 24 die each year from alcohol-related unintentional injuries, and more than 97,000 college students are victims of alcohol-related sexual assault or date rape.
Whether you are part of LTU's Greek organizations or not, as college students, we can all take a stand in not becoming just another alcohol-related statistic by unbiased confrontation and lending a helping hand to someone who may need it.
"You must not be too quick to judge [a person], and you must be patient. People in general are very short to 'attack' or question others that are struggling with situations, and it just causes more problems," Kimberly Klieber, president of LTU's Greek Honor Society Order of Omega, said by e-mail.

Mike Hart's Family Photo Album
Yeah, we know Mike Hart's family looks a hell of a lot like Pete Carroll's family from our post last month. But, in the wake of recent events, we couldn't resist this one.

This morning as I was watching ESPN this morning, they were talking about Kentucky getting beat by whoever they got beat by and they had to say "Appalachian State".

Srudoff -
And UM will keep beating them. I saw a youtube clip of Penn State fans chanting "ASU,ASU,ASU" a few days after the game. How'd that work out for them ? About as well as all the MSU fans that bought ASU shirts.
The funniest thing about the whole App State thing is, most of the people that are bringing it up are fans of the schools that can't beat UM. Except for you, of course.

Let's see...
2004: 225 yards rushing, win.
2005: 218 yards rushing, win.
2006: 122 yards rushing, win.
2007: 110 yards rushing, win.
Other than the downward trend, Mike Hart has earned the right to talk all he wants about Sparty.

Might want to add:
2004: 6.8 yd/carry
2005: 6.1 yd/carry
2006: 5.5 yd/carry
2007: 7.3 yd/carry
Not a complete downward trend...

I still don't understand why the App State loss is considered the biggest upset ever. Syracuse and Stanford were both bigger underdogs when they beat Louisville and USC, respectively. Is it just the 1-AA label? I guarantee we'd pull a bigger spread versus 1/2 of the Mac, Sun Belt and MWC, and probably Stanford and Syracuse, too. If we fell flat versus NIU this year it would be much worse than losing to Appy, but it's just the stupid 1-AA label.
Sure it was a huge upset and it was damn embarrassing, but ESPN has given it a label and now foists their crap upon all of us every time there is an upset or Michigan plays.
All teams lose games they are supposed to win -- look at osu versus Findlay and msu versus GVSU in basketball.

Imagine how many times we're going to have to see "highlights" of the ASU game if UM beats Wisco and OSU beats Illinois. It will set up a "from the bottom to the top" or "redemption" montage. I'm sure ABC can get at least a half hour out of it on Nov 17.
- November 08, 2007 12:12 PM

First of all, that was a pre-season #5 ranking. A game hadn't been played at all thus it didn't really matter. I know that's one of the things they pin on the loss as the first time a team ranked in the top 25 lost to a Division I-AA team. Second of all, it was the first game of the season, there's some sloppiness in the game. As it was, Michigan kept it close. A couple of blocked field goals made and it's a non-issue. Although then the cry will be about how the game was close.
- November 08, 2007 12:13 PM
- srudoff said...
a few things that make it the biggest ever...
1. 1-aa
2. you were ranked #5
3. you were at home
4. your training facilities and athletic budget vs theirs
5. the huge recruiting pool advantage you have vs them
6. tradition vs "they lost to WHO??"
the fact that no 1-aa team EVER beat a top ranked division 1-a team is huge too, especially at the home spreads don't matter when it comes to a team from a lower division beating a supposedly great and storied team. They wouldn't had made Hoosiers if it wasn't about that tiny school in Indiana.
As far as basketball - i think you see that much more frequently so the shock and awe only lasts until the next big upset.
While Hart has earned the right to talk smack to sparty, he definitely doesn't let his 0-3 record against OSU stop him from talking smack about us. So I'm assuming he just likes to talk smack, whether he can back it up or not.

Your current ranking isn't that far off of that preseason #5 no?
"As it was, Michigan kept it close" - is that the standard that the winningest team in NCAA football should strive to?

If you want to complain about App State being brought up this season again and again (and probably the next season or two) ... you might consider that thou protests too much.
Michigan never should have lost to APSU. It was a huge upset. It was an embarrassment to the program. Don't even try to make excuses for it ... unless you think the program doesn't need any changes.
Plus, it's funny when we beat teams that think App State jabs constitute a form of clever humor, because they become the team that lost to the team that lost to Wofford.
I'd rather accept that minor abuse than try to explain how Coach Weis really is a great coach ... and that my 1-8 record is totally the fault of somebody ... anybody ... just not the Master of X and Os.
So, let the dogs have their day and be a man about it. May be we'll be prepared at the start of the season next year.
- November 08, 2007 1:20 PM

1. 1-AA: Its just a measure of the amount of scholarships a team can give.
2. Pre-season rankings mean squat. We're probably somewhere between 10-20 on any given Saturday.
3. SoCal and Louisville were also at home.
4. Stanford versus SoCal in training facilities, recruiting and budget. Think about that disparity.
5. Recruiting is a huge advantage. However, App State was a senior-laden team with the experience of two national championships versus a young defense and an ill-prepared coaching staff. Again look at the recruiting advantage SoCal has versus Stanford.
6. True.
I agree that it was a huge and embarrassing loss, but it is not the biggest ever and it doesn't warrant ESPN bringing it up every time an underdog wins a game.

I believe that Mike Hart's "smack" comments came after the game where he rushed 23 times for 142 yards (avg. 6.2 yd/carry) and 3 TDs. He said that tOSU's defense wasn't anything special...
Given his previous performances against tOSU... this was quite good... especially against a team that was #1 at the time.
It's not really smack that he was talking... just a confident (borderline cocky) athlete that was backing up his performance.
Sure he's 0-3 against tOSU but separate his comments from those AFTER the MSU game... when you go 4-0 and have your statistically best 4 combined games against one team in your career... you deserve the right to think you own them.
In a little over a week... we'll see if Hart can back up his talk.

My comment stated that Mike has earned the right to talk smack about Sparty. I did not say anything about tOSU. On that subject we all should just stay silent and watch what happens.
I guess I should get used to your self-absorption.
In general, I agree with you that Mike talks too much. His "not special" comment last year after losing to the bucks were silly -- even though florida proved he was right.

revenue is the biggest differentiation between the divisions, as measured by home attendance - you have to have at least 15,000 per game to be allowed to apply for d-1a status.
i see your points on usc and louisville but honestly a bcs conf team beating another bcs conference team will never be considered the greatest upset ever. perhaps a d-1a non bcs team (mac, big sky, etc) beating a top 5 div 1-a team would get consideration but the difference in division will always trump that in football.
had osu lost to youngstown state, i'd fully expect to hear about it for a loooong time.
btw - didn't know if anyone saw this but osu's first 4 opponents were....

Cheese for that whine? Isn't LLLLLOYD Carr the one who was whining at the end of last year following the beat down from OSU? (by the way, that game was not as close as the final score showed - 2 unforced TO) He thought UM still deserved a shot at the nat'l championship.... and then we all saw what happened against USC. You goobers from UM are so excited about barely beating a weak PSU team, beating a pathetic NU team by 12, a MAC school by 11 and a mediocre MSU team in the final minute. UM has obviously put it together since the beginning of the season, BUT "putting it together" and being a top tier team are 2 different things. Face it, from a national perspective UM is merely an average team that has a fan base, much like those of many SEC schools, that thinks since they have had great teams in the past, that puts them up with the elite. I compare UM and their fans to Georgia, Auburn, Tennessee and Alabama.... AVERAGE at best. You started with 2 losses and you'll finish with 2 more. What does it take for you d-bags to face reality? There's a good book entitled "Confronting Reality" by Larry Bossidy and Ram Charan. I suggest all UM fans take time to read it. Go Badgers!
- November 08, 2007 10:47 PM

so? was that guy just another tosu dork w/ nothing to do late at night?
or was he a 'Sconsin fan, what w/ the "go badgers" schtick?
'cause if that was a badger fan leading of w/ the "cheese" joke, that's actually sorta funny.
probably still funny if he's a tosu troll since he probably never really connected the "cheese" line w/ the wisconsin finish, just not AS funny.
though i'm guessing he wasn't going for funny. as wet rock said the other day- you have to take humor where you can find it.

You do realize it would be more effective to refrain from name calling when you are trying to prove a point about another team. Also, you might want think a little before you post...
If Michigan is so "average" as you like to point out... why, from the year 2000 to 2006 have BOTH Michigan and tOSU won the Big Ten title 3 times each (with both having an outright championship)and yet you call Michigan average?
I'm sure you bleed some color of red or scarlet... but making one of your biggest rivals (if you indeed cheer for the Buckeyes) be average just degrades your team at the same time. That's why the "experts" are saying that tOSUs ranking of #1 right now isn't special because they haven't played anyone!
The reason the SEC boasts about their good teams is because the relative strength of the middle of their conference... it's definitely not in the best interest of the conference to have one amazing team and 9 or 10 pedestrian teams.
I've faced reality with being a Michigan fan... I think realistically that we won't go undefeated each year because there have been very few teams to accomplish that on a yearly basis (ask USC about its recent run). Are my expectations high? Yes, but I realize that during the course of 12 games... things don't always go your way.

"asshat"? that's clever Moron.
i hope you went to tosu on a scholarship, because if you paid for that education? you need your money back.
second, i have two different friends who were tossed last year for "instigating" on two different tosu blogs during the season. their comments were nothing like yours but they were shown the door for riling up the natives. also, i recall one of the bloggers (don't recall which one) got tossed last year (or '05) and wrote a post about it.
don't really care if you believe. you're not important.
third, if you really think i'd go around trolling, behaving like the complete asshole that you are? to prove anything to you? you are dumber than you look (and you look like a Moron). face it- you are an irritation on a pc screen looking for attention. i'm not giving you any more.

i go on a little west coast road trip and miss all the fun :-) Talked to a very nice UM grad yesterday, who was convinced that Hart shouldn't play this week against Wisco (i agree with him, btw -- the game means nothing in B10 race). He hit the alumni lottery and is going to the game next week. Lucky bastard.
IMHO, there're 2 reasons that the ASU win gets brought up so much: 1. UM is the winningest team of all times AND
2. ASU gets 20 less scholarships than you guys (but that, probably, shouldn't even effect their 2 deep roster).
The combination of the 2 factors makes that win an unlikely occurrence.

I too snagged 2 ducats next week's game. Will be the last time I see Carr coach (can't make a bowl this year & have decided that if he doesn't leave after this season, I'm sitting next season). So I'm looking forward to it win or lose.
While this post was about Dantonio making an ass out himself, I'll readily agree the app st thing will be talked about for a long time, in the same way the Colts-Jets super bowl or 1980 olympic ice hockey is discussed from time to time.
The Colts were a powerhouse for over a decade when they lost to the Jets. Same w/ the Russians. Their "greatness" made their loss news.
Michigan fans can't go around talking about the greatness of our tradition/bowl appearances/all time wins/winning %/11 mnc's/etc., w/out then acknowledging that our upset is news because of that history. Colorado or NU losing to DI-AA teams is news. Michigan losing is history. We need to accept that & move on. That's what the Colts & the Russians did.

While Battlefield 4's debut suggests you'll be accompanied by a squad throughout the campaign, the upcoming DICE shooter won't sport a cooperative mode.

The news comes from a machine-translated interview with IGN Benelux (via Videogamer). When contacted for confirmation regarding the translation, an EA representative told Shacknews: "Karl's comments are accurate."

Random Orioles Magic (1)
I have a lot of catching up on here to do. We know that. On days like today where I can't commit to a long blog post but still want to get something up to get the blood flowing and the readers reading, I'm going to put up a random picture or two. Could be from last season. The offseason. No season at all. Who knows. My desktop is soooooo cluttered right now with random stuff I've saved and taken screenshots of, and I am the worst at organizing files on my computer, so it will literally be a mashup of tons of different stuff.
For today, I give you a funny side by side shot of my good Orioles friends, Matt and Zevi. Both pictures taken at Orioles games last year, at random [unexpected] times:
Well there you go. And man, am I glad to finally get that off of my desktop.

Not only does Congressman Ryan want to end Medicare as we know it and raise taxes on middle-class Americans to pay for tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires, but he also supported a bill that could ban birth control and all abortions -- even in cases of rape and incest.A bill that could ban birth control? Can I get a citation for that? I found this on BarackObama.com marshaling the facts about Ryan:
This isn't the kind of leader we can afford to have a heartbeat away from the presidency....
Paul Ryan is severely conservative...Can we get a cite to the text of that bill? Banning "many common forms of birth control, including the pill" — really? I'm just going to assume this is a lie until the Obama people prove to me that it's not a lie. That's the way we're doing things now, right?
Paul Ryan would take us backward on women's health:
Ryan cosponsored a bill that could ban in-vitro fertilization, as well as many common forms of birth control, including the pill. It could also ban all abortions, even in cases of rape or incest. He supported letting states prosecute women who have abortions and doctors who perform them.

Apple CEO Steve Jobs is going on the offensive against Adobe's Flash technology. He says it's too buggy, battery-draining and PC-oriented to work on the iPhone and iPad.
In a statement Thursday, Jobs laid out his reasons for excluding Flash — the most popular vehicle for videos and games on the Internet — from Apple's blockbuster handheld devices.
Apple has been criticized for the omission of Flash, which limits the usefulness of the iPhone. In his rebuttal, Jobs said the most important reason for excluding Flash is that it puts a third party between Apple and software developers. That means developers can take advantage of improvements from Apple only if Adobe chose to upgrade its own software, Jobs wrote.

ArenaNet is claiming a sales record for Guild Wars 2, saying that selling over three million copies in nine months gives them rights to claim the title of fastest selling MMORPG in the U.S. in Europe over the first nine months, beating out whatever game previously held this coveted distinction. "After triangulating against multiple data sources, it's clear that Guild Wars 2 is the fastest-selling Western MMO of all time based on the first nine months of availability," said analyst David Cole of DFC Intelligence. "This puts Guild Wars 2 in an impressive position when they release in China, where we've seen similar franchises really take off." Burying the lede, they also mention they will offer the chance to check out the game at the end of this month in a free trial:

FRSA's Section 20109 protects railroad workers from retaliation for, among other acts, reporting suspected violations of federal laws and regulations related to railroad safety and security, hazardous safety or security conditions and on-the-job injuries.
"Protecting America's railroad workers who report on-the-job injuries from retaliation is an essential element in OSHA's mission. This accord makes significant progress toward ensuring that BNSF employees who report injuries do not suffer any adverse consequences for doing so," said Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health Dr. David Michaels. "It also sets the tone for other railroad employers throughout the U.S. to take steps to ensure that their workers are not harassed, intimidated or terminated, in whole or part, for reporting workplace injuries."
The major terms of the accord include:
• Changing BNSF's disciplinary policy so that injuries no longer play a role in determining the length of an employee's probation following a record suspension for a serious rule violation. As of Aug. 31, 2012, BNSF has reduced the probations of 136 employees who were serving longer probations because they had been injured on-the-job.
• Eliminating a policy that assigned points to employees who sustained on-the-job injuries.
• Revising a program that required increased safety counseling and prescribed operations testing so that work-related injuries will no longer be the basis for enrolling employees in the program. As part of the negotiations leading up to the accord, BNSF removed from the program approximately 400 workers.
• Instituting a higher level review by BNSF's upper management and legal department for cases in which an employee who reports an on-duty personal injury is also assessed discipline related to the incident giving rise to the injury.
• Implementing a training program for BNSF's managers and labor relations and human resources professionals to educate them about their responsibilities under the FRSA. The training will be incorporated into BNSF's annual supervisor certification program.
• Making settlement offers in 36 cases to employees who filed whistleblower complaints with OSHA alleging they were harmed by one or more of the company's previous policies.
The accord with BNSF can be viewed at http://www.whistleblowers.gov/acts/bnsf_accord.html.

The real solution, in my opinion, is to move beyond clothes that need to be dry cleaned. Wouldn't it be funny, if — all these years after we baby boomers decided we had to hate polyester suits — we embraced them — and for just about the same reason we hated them: devotion to the natural?
Do you know the movie "The Man in the White Suit"?
Sidney Stratton, a brilliant young research chemist and former Cambridge scholarship recipient, has been dismissed from jobs at several textile mills because of his demands for expensive facilities and his obsession to invent a long-lasting fibre. Whilst working as a labourer at the Birnley mill, he accidentally becomes an unpaid researcher and invents an incredibly strong fibre which repels dirt and never wears out...The evil business owners want to suppress this invention, of course. Anyway. I remember watching this movie in the 1970s — when polyester suit hatred reached its height among us natural-fiber-loving post-hippies. The movie was made in 1951, and we were amused by the way the film-makers did not anticipate the horror of polyester.
Stratton is lauded as a genius until both management and the trade unions realise the consequence of his invention—once consumers have purchased enough cloth, demand will drop precipitously and put the textile industry out of business.....
We experienced our enlightened perceptions 2 decades after the movie came out, and now, here we are, after 4 more decades. Perhaps we should get back on the track we retreated from so we can find our way out of the bondage of dry cleaning.

In targeting and achieving new standards, Axion has worked to strengthen its product to meet the increased weights and speeds its customers are running. More and more ECOTRAX customers are pushing into the 60-100 million gross tons per year zone and Axion says it is increasing its standards to meet this demand.
"We believe that our achievements in composite rail tie and rail sleeper quality, performance and consistency are at levels never before seen in the industry. We are very proud of this achievement. It's a milestone for Axion and we believe it creates a serious barrier to entry as we set ourselves on a pace for continuous improvements that exceed customer expectations for performance and value," stated President and CEO Steve Silverman. "This will be the first of many advancements in our technology as Axion continuously strives to be the leader in composite infrastructure products."
Axion says it continually evaluates its raw material streams, its manufacturing processes and its quality control standards. These improvements, the company notes, has led to increasingly higher performance achievements that are consistent batch-to-batch, day-to-day across multiple different manufacturing facilities.
Based on the results documented by independent testing facilities and confirmed by the company's regular quality testing, Axion says ECOTRAX ties perform at an average 50 percent above the American Railway Engineering and Maintenance-of-Way Association's standards for measures including modulus of elasticity and flexural strength.
