It can be done; look at how much they've raised in this short amount of time.

SSC has quickly become a very renowned company, and has established itself as a major player in live theatre. It really is a landmark.

CALM DOWN

What's the matter with giving updates?

re: Save the Landmark Shakespeare Santa Cruz! Please Donate, and Keep Them

Posted: 12/18/08 at 3:01pm

No one can actually find them since they spend 20 minutes trying to differentiate it from your sig.

Besides, those who care and aren't annoyed with you (as I get the feeling some of the Save AMTSJ people are) can actually just go to the links instead of having to read your babble.

If we have come to the point in society where people will ignore crucial issues regarding "anything" because of an internet signature, then that reaally says something.

Thus, I will not stop. Hate me if you want.

The SSC is one of the premiere companies; it has quickly become as highly regarded as the Utah Shakespearean Festival. SSC has been called one of the top ten companies in the US.

it's not about hate and it's not about THIS issue...

it's about how you're trying to get your message across.

I think everyone gets the point. You don't need to constantly bump and update the thread.

If someone wants to save it, they will save it.

Some people on this forum really do hate me (do a search), and "if someone wants to save it, they'll save it," at least in your written context, is a really poor statement and very indicative of how sad society has become. Users here in the past have made pleas to save other companies, and have given updates on how the situation is going.

If people care, they will continue caring ... you are right in thinking that.

Yeah, but they don't have their head up their ass when they do so.

you just manage to be annoying while doing it, tmm.

that's too bad

Very concrete argument :)

So, you agree with me but refuse to do anything. I haven't done anything wrong in this thread, and yet am being trounced all over. And "yet," if another user were to post this, they'd get a positive response. Go back, and you'll see that hatred towards me on this forum began years ago on the off-topic board while posting stuff regarding environmental issues; since then, I am considered the BWW idiot.

well you do seem a bit off your rocker.

your ridiculous signature is scarying me.... no wonder people "trounce" on you

The Wal-Mart stuff is true.

Wow. You are mentally crazy.

And why do those quotes scare you?

You remind me of the kind of person who is convinced that the Government plants computer chips in the brains of soldiers and ex cons.

There have been books, articles, etc written on this; there is an awesome and famous documentary that you can probably find on DVD; former employees have lashed out at the company because of the lack of benefits and their treatment by them.

The film is "Wal-Mart: the High Cost of Low Price"

Shut up.

No one cares.
