Re: Al Gore on apple board now! Apple is going down the tubes.

If the man who invented the Internet isn't qualified to serve on the Apple
board, then I don't know who is...

I have seen board meetings in action, and they are little more than
figureheads in most companies.  They do little more than show up for a
biannual meeting where they place token votes to grant executive stock
options and approve fraudulent audits.  They receive a nice five or six
figure honorarium (director's fee) for their ten minutes of service a year
and they are sent on their merry way.  So I would say AG is more than
qualified :)
