A friend of mine was a F1 photographer. He was at a meeting with Ecclestone where a news media organization asked Ecclestone for permission to film the pit crews to provide better coverage and promotion of the event. Ecclestone said "Sure, if you give me five thousand dollars in cash right now." The new organization didn't have five large in cash to give him right there, and no receipt wouldn't have gone over too well with their bean counting anyway. He said "Denied."

If you're not getting out of the hole fast enough, try a bigger shovel.

Exactly, I am offended by anyone who believes that the attempted extermination of a race to the value of 11 to 17 MILLION souls was efficiency. It was evil, no more no less.
Racism in any form is inefficient and this was the most extreme act of racism in the modern world
And which race would this be?

Reminds me of the republican office worker who sent out a possibly racist (definitely un-PC at least) chain letter about Obama. Her apology: "Sorry I sent it to the wrong list of people"
