Verizon’s Google Envy

1. Verizon Executives are a bunch of greedy dimwits.

2. And the [appropriate response from slashdot](http://yro.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=176635&cid=14664847 ):

Let’s have some metaphorical fun. Suppose you’re a mushroom farmer. You sell your mushrooms wholesale for $1 a bushel and life is good; you’re not rich but you get by. One day you notice that Mario Batali is using your mushrooms in his restaurant and on his show and making a bundle. He’s selling dishes which prominently feature–no rely on–your mushrooms for far more than you thought they were worth. Do you think you have a case to extract a fee from Chef Batali? Is he getting a free lunch from your hard work or does the mushroom farmer just have business-model-envy?
