  1. I noticed recently that my formerly perfect vision seemed to suddenly be not so perfect when reading. After awhile, it dawned on me to do a very scientific study and keep one eye closed while viewing the page with the open eye. I noticed one I had markedly blurrier vision than the other. Has anyone here experienced rather sudden deterioration in one eye before? Seems like I will finally have to bite the bullet and give in and get glasses one of these days.

    why is it ridiculous? Overblown, yes. Deliberately provocative, OK. But the issue remains…saying the majority prevails cannot trump a moral issue.

    *I* think CEO payscales are a moral issue because of fairness, and I agree you do not. But if we look at it thru the lens of morality and ethics, my question was justified.
