The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Just a random thought...

When I die, there's a better than even chance that I'll be on hold when I do. I seem to spend a lot of my life on hold, often with insurance companies or medical billing departments.

[so far on hold for 45 minutes, with music that sounds like it is from a transmitter that is just out of range...no indication of when I'll be "caller number 1"]
