mkim, in this instance, I think that David is referring to companies, in this case oil companies, who, in trying to get the largest profits they can reap, aren't careful about protecting the environment around their drilling operations. I think that this stems from his visit to the Amazon and what the oil companies did there, as well as in the Gulf. -- Close to Harm: James Conlon

In reply to: mkim 's message, "Hmmmm, "Big Business" Would that be like ABC...or CBS???? He said he wasnt against businesses per se, but then 'big business' indicated the bad guy in both the situations he was talking about, in his show and the area and the tribe in the Amazon.....Sorry, I had a hard time following the 'big guy' for most of this one. I know his heart is probably in the right place, but as I said, I had a hard time relating." on 13:22:16 07/15/10 Thu
