i suggest you have a good read and put the 2 together, as i said try looking at the big picture.

Bit I like is when the top fella says he has bought the PH firm to improve the level of service they offer.

Have I got this right?

Delgro/ComCab is taking over at the Airport with their Ph/Hack Company.

Fixed prices are to become the norm.

Ph and Hacks will be working together at the airport and in the town while Central and City Cabs are losing all their work.

Mr. Coutts is taking the Ph fleet into the bus lanes

Meanwhile lots of migrant or immigrant (take your pick) Labour is flooding into the country. (I wonder how much they will work for and what they will be driving to make a living?)

This part is especially for the Edinburgh Hacks who read this forum.

Looks like the end of the Edinburgh Taxi Fleet as wee know it.

Not long before you will be working for a bowl of rice lads and it’s nothing more than you deserve.

Remember the Fair View Magazine it was all in there and more.

Isn't it amazing how Alan Gladrags (Fasties) has failed to discuss the information in these links?

Anyone would think they are blind or living in denial . Maybe it's just us?

One of the biggest buyouts to hit the Edinburgh Taxi Trade for years and they don't even notice.

Say's it all really

I can't see CRT or City Cabs lasting much longer their work is all ready taking a hammering.

Irving Janis and Group think springs to mind


http://www.geocities.com/CollegePark/4110/think.htm

The "illusion of invulnerability" happens when a group thinks that they cannot go wrong. Confidence among the members of the group is remarkably high and is reflected in the decisions that they make (Keil 1). A "belief in inherent morality of the group" occurs when the group thinks tremendously of their morality. The group believes that it is doing the right thing in all circumstances. "Collective rationalization" is another symptom of Groupthink. Groups who experience this believe that nothing can be wrong with their plan even if there is significant evidence to prove otherwise (Keil 2). A lack of creativity and a disregard for others' options is a characteristic of groups with "out-group stereotypes." Groups often pay little attention to what outsiders have to say, and this can be detrimental (Keil 2). "Self-censorship" occurs when group members don't share their ideas with the rest of the group because of fear of being rejected (Keil 2). The "illusion of unanimity" explains that silence can often be interpreted as acceptance. All of these are symptoms of Groupthink. If one or more of these are commonplace in a particular group, change must occur.

I am going to take a chance here Stu and say you are in agreement with us from an impartial and objective point of view. I might also point out your model is dependent on morality as a precondition of being human. Did it never occur to you we might just be animals with animal instincts?


Tell me Stu do you believe in God?

I can't help get the feeling you need to be more moral than the next guy just to feel good about yourself.

What have you done Stu you dirty little man?

Who are you trying to convince?

Trust you to take it out of context Skull, hahaha

And what does believing in God have to do with group think?

A dirty little man hahaha, I wish

I am not trying to convince anyone of anything

I must have the wrong Stu I thought you were the all seeing all doing good guy there to protect the World from people like me.


How about answering the questions?

Don't know much about the Edinburgh circuits, but that certainly looks like a good description of the Edinburgh plate cartel.

Or any plate cartel, come to that:)

Do you know I dont think it's worth the effort,but the dirty wee man thing makes me laugh, I think there is obviously some form of projection there, I think I mentioned that the last time you lot tried that one, but just to remind you, projection is when someone is threatened by or afraid of their own impulses so they attribute these impulses to someone else, know what I mean as if I give a f*** what anyone thinks about me, I already know the answer to that one anyway, but thats the danger when you stick your noses into something you dont understand,cant understand, you put two and two together but you make five, it's always the way, me, I dont care about your childish threats, why dont you expand on the dirty wee man story, it's certainly been running for some time, 3 years and 8 months now, so come on Skull, tell the world about the dirty wee man in your midst, what is the crime/habit/repugnant behaviour you are talking about, dont just suggest there is something that makes me a dirty wee man, time to get this one out the way be honest and open, I prefer that to the [edited by admin] I have to put up with every night from my schizophrenic "friends"

Well, well Stu me old chum what have you been up to? I was merely on a fishing expedition but now I find “the dirty wee man” comment is closer to the truth than first thought but hey thanks for spilling the beans. Why don’t you give us a breakdown on what you were accused of “3 years and 8 months ago”. Let me purge you of your sins you know you want to talk about it don’t you.

Now I know why you feel the need to be so magnanimous while passing judgement on people with the exception of taxi drivers of course especially me. This is where the back slapping good guy comes from isn’t it.


Tell us all about your broken halo Stu and how you are trying to make amends and you a taxi driver as well.

Now that’s scary

Well Skull me old chum, 3years and 8 months is the time I have been in the Taxi trade, but you were not on a fishing expedition, are you saying or suggesting that I have ever been accused of committing a criminal act?

Their is no back slapping good guy Skull just a normal guy trying to make a living, but I need a way in and your accusation can provide that.

One by one skull, you see it's time for me to come clean, to a good solicitor,and I know one,make no mistake I have suffered from all this, you see I remember every detail of everything that people have done and said, it's to late for most of them

I will teach them the meaning of loss, the thing is I am genuinely a decent person, I bother nobody and hope nobody bothers me, but alas it was not to be, still being a kind sort of person I will make sure that my knives are sharpened and honed to perfection at least that way they wont feel them going into their backs
