Also, I think it needs to be noted that just because things are questioned or discussed concerning UPC doesn't ALWAYS mean that it's bashing or tearing down UPC.
A lot of times it's how we hear things, not how it's said (and I know this doesn't always hold true, but just a reminder).
Of the non-UPC folks, there are only a few that are against UPC.
I wish it wasn't a "you" and "them" shoot-off to some. I'm not UPC, but I have respect for those that are and that's why I'm comfortable being around them or posting with them.
If someone has problems with it, they need to not be here.
Well said, I have no desire to criticize my heritage, even though I disagree in many areas. So what, I am probably wrong in a few of them.

I thought it was funny, still think it's funny and didn't see it as a slam to UPC. It's what anyone outside UPC would think.
Renda, it isn't this one post, it is the culmination of the many threads that (to a degree, and to somes views) they are bashing UPC.
It just gets old.
I am not a company man per se, and may not be the brightest bulb in the pack but I have enough gift of suspicion to recognize Organization bashing when I see it.

Exactly!
I will add to that also, that because most of us come from a UPC background is why we feel comfortable saying some of the things that we do (not the slamming), but we've been there, we know too what the problems are and just because we've left UPC doesn't mean we don't care.
But, it also doesn't mean we should keep our mouths completely shut because we don't know what we are talking about.
I was UPC for 20 years before some of you were even born!!!!!!!!!!!!

JMHO Though.
I completely agree. I believe this thread cumulated the feeling, but it wasn't the cartoon per se.
