Re: UKNM: Incorrect Use of Client Reference Sites

[Duncan Macmillan]

We mustn't jump to false conculsions about Zygon.  Just because they don't

say anything about the work they've done, and just because Thomas Cook

haven't heard of them, doesn't mean that they haven't done some work for

them.  For all I know they might repair their printers, or, more likely,

provide a lunchtime sandwich service.


Actually, this kind of nonsense really irritates me, so I grassed them up to

Universal's MCA Music and Xerox, the other fraud victims.


I did find a genuine Zygon client called Greyfriars Glass & China, but their

site looks like it was designed by a bunch of talentless charlatans.
