Um, Uber, did you try the link? Sometimes they're hard to see in the old redn'black scheme. I use both DSL's skin and the old one on different browsers...

I could maybe understand it in Japanese companies (it's a strong part of the corporate culture), but I.B.M? KPMG? WTF?!?!?!

I've seen people on tv singnig the IBM anthem. IBM makes its employees learn this song. They sing it at picnics and other social occasions and shit. (i used to wonder how what used to be called an "IBM compatable" is now simply called a "PC")It was part of a documentory mini series on the history of the computer. (they were getting into how anal-retentive and stupid the execs at IBM and XEROX are.)

When I worked at Wal-Mart moons ago we had to learn the cheer. It's a good method of brainwashing/stimulating your workers.*twitch*

106PAINTING THE CLOUDS WITH SUNSHINE
Tune: "Painting the Clouds With Sunshine"
(By J. P. Saxton, Endicott Factory)
We don’t pretend we’re gay,
We always feel that way,
Because we’re filling the world with sunshine.
With I. B. M. machines,
We’ve got the finest means,
For brightly painting the clouds
Records we make, only to break,
Teaching the whole world to know
I. B. M.’s line, will all the time,
Help it to grow.
When things do not look bright,
Our products make them right,
And keep on painting the clouds with sunshine
