					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/get-your-obsolete-emeter-now-only-3500/#comment-6417&quot;&gt;Nomnom&lt;/a&gt;.

Don&#039;t get me started Nomnom...when it comes to electronic technology the church is clueless.  The simple fact that they have their latest and greatest, super-advanced, technically superior, all-singing, all-dancing eMeter sitting in a warehouse for the past 8 YEARS, tells you it is dead in the water upon release.  This area of technology changes sooo rapidly, that you would be lucky for any product to be &quot;advanced&quot; for 12-18 months.  The sad thing is not that they &quot;don&#039;t know&quot; - they don&#039;t know they don&#039;t know.  Worse still, they are convinced &quot;they know&quot; and that those goofy wogs are operating in the stone ages.  Talk about arrogance.
There is no reason the eMeter could not have evolved as a software product.  Sure, you can have dedicated proprietary hardware, but the real advancements are made on the software front.  Any inexpensive tablet could quite easily handle any functional aspect of an eMeter.  The fact that they continue to remain in the hardware market as a boutique device manufacture tells you all you need to know. 

The only reasons this area continues to limp along are:
1) Out-sourcing of component manufacture to China
2) Slave labor force at Gold
3) Virtual monopoly on the production of eMeters
4) Captive market of onlines Scnists, who they have by the short &#039;n curlies
5) Ridiculous profit margins

Normally, any one of these would be enough for a wog business to leverage and be successful.  But to have all five is unheard of.  And what do we see as a result?  Technically advanced devices?  No.  Low, low prices?  No.  Proliferation of devices?  No.  But, guaranteed you will see Gold Plated Special Edition going for 20k, or a Limited Edition Ideal Org Founding Humanitarian for 50k. 

I mean, really, there&#039;s just too much money to be made to seriously consider Clearing the Planet.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[He reminds me of the Dennis Waterman caricature in the Little Britain comedy series whereby most of the jokes in the sketches are about Waterman (a veteran British actor and sometime pretty awful singer/songwriter...) being extremely small making common objects massive in comparison to him. The character is offered but always declines respectable roles because he is not allowed to star in, or &quot;write the theme tune, sing the theme tune&quot; (pronounced as &quot;write da feem toon, sing da feem toon&quot;) of, the particular production. DM would not have this problem because he&#039;s running the show so I can only cringe at the thought of him presenting his new creations to staff and forcing them to sit through him singing his new Scientology anthems, hymns and other tuneless vocal creations. I suspect his tunes would all be suitable for marching to. OMG can you imagine being force regged into buying the new bumper box set of them....? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6uOngXn0CGI]]></description>
