Alanyst, mea culpa to you. I keep getting the impression that the SCO Group has this little safe haven zone in Utah, and that the courts are going to give the SCO group a whitewash because they are local.
From the outside, Utah sure seems isolated from the rest of the world and nation. In fact, all of the pumpers eem bent on giving everyone the impression that all of the locals will not allow anything other than a verdict or decision in favor of the SCO Group (think about all of the pumper posts here).
The fact is, if they were here, I think there would be a very different reaction. They wouldn't be getting honored in the press, but probably reviled or at least questioned. They seem instead to be glorified in the press there.
From the outside, it looks like all of Utah is one big gambling pool and Darl is but a symptom of the disease. (not fair, but we are talking about perception - something Darl and crew are working hard in the media - though certainly not facts).
The fact that I see nothing but favorable articles in the local media from Salt Lake and Deseret News (haven't seen anyone really saying they might have a problem in the Salt Lake news) and the fact that it appears no one questions their scam (other than the LUG there) makes one wonder what the hell is going on.
I know that people have lives to lead, but I imagine people who would try such here would simply be called on their bullshit in the local media.
Canopy has way too much media access and they are painting the picture to the outside world. That may be unfair, but it is the perception they are giving everyone. People do look at this and think "Do I really want to do business with people who don't question the motives and methods of this questionable enterprise?"
All I want is for people to recognize that fact. They are harmful to everyone - not merely themselves. They also harm the perception of the State, the perception of the local media, and the perception of the people. You begin to wonder if there isn't some reality distrotion field in operation there.
At some point, someone has to realize that their actions are detrimental to all.
I apologize to the people of Utah who aren't buying into this scam. If you are, well, you are part of the problem.
The perception is what they are showing the otherwise disinterested nation. They are saying through their actions that "all of Utah is behind us in this lawsuit."
That should be considered. The perception is there, and Darl and crew are the main promoters of that idea.
