A noble thought, and I would have to agree with you on principle. But -
you should know better than to say such things in a profession that does
not seem to be a pinnacle of ethics :-). And - Omega is a marketing
company in that profession, not a software company. Combine marketing and
trading, and the pinnacle is even lower, perhaps :-).
Just a thought...
