[rant]But, lets not lose sight of the fact that it is just
Corporate America selling itself . again.
I can’t open a glossy magazine without discovering that Dow chemical is now very concerned with “Hu” — The Human element, accompanied by the same kind of cozy, warm fuzzy images and text designed to make me forget that they are . . . Well, Dow Chemical.
And Chevron talks a lot about “Human Energy” in their Corporate Advertising. The same Chevron that has a free pass on sanctions against the Military Dictators in Burma, and is their greatest source of Income.
Apple, of course, is not Dow Chemical or Chevron. But it still irks me to see these wonderful images (all in the public domain, I would wager) used to shill computers. Like Apple had anything to do with the accomplishments of any of those people.

Hope for what? A world of Macs? Or that Picaso will come back from the dead?
