However, if you feel you are bound by confidentiality agreements, then simply do not post where you may come anywhere close to being in conflict with those areas, especially where you are not able to back your statements up with facts. Everyone will be all the more happier for it, I am FAIRLY SURE, though I am NOT POSITIVE, since I am only speaking for myself absolutely, although I have heard similar expressed by others, I am not speaking for them.
I can't honestly believe you responded to my comment about the towels! I was being sarcastic and facetious about towels simply to make a point. You do understand sarcasm, don't you? It is kind of like a rhetorical question, it never, or almost never requires an answer! However, even with that, I never mentioned laundry, I mentioned TOWELS, and it was a JOKE!!
I do appreciate your response and doing research on who I am with your contact at MI (yes the folks in Bethesda do know how I am, they became aware of my identity over a decade ago) - but please remember I have never attempted to be the official representative for MI on FT nor have I ever passed myself off as such....as far as my employment goes I'd recommend you do a search here on FT, you'll see my retirement announcement some years ago (posted moments after I announced my retirement within the company) but that doesn't mean I'm not active in the industry (read that as you wish) - if you choose not to believe the information I pass along that is your choice, you can continue to make assumptions as you wish (FT is a community for all to share information and knowledge - that is my main purpose for being active here)
I would strongly suggest you ask your contacts in MI re-read MIP-29......it speaks for itself (the current version was last updated 5/19/2009)
I am truly sorry my answer on your towel question seems to have put you in a worse mood than you already in - I do honestly apologize
PS - As I seem to recall you've already covered this very ground several times before in the past few years - is there a reason to keep bringing it up? I can assure you nothing has changed....I haven't gone back to MI, I'm having way to much fun (not that MI wasn't a fun place to work, it was and enjoyed every moment I was there)...besides I'd probably end up loosing my CO & DL gold status if I went back
