No offense taken, my friend. It's all good.

But 'narrow minded'? I think not.
I believe having the courage of one's convictions in all manner of living - including what businesses to patronize - is the ONLY way to live a healthy life.
It's just like I will not have an American flag flying from my Japanese motorcycle.
Yes, I bought a Japanese motorcycle, but I still look at it with some shame at times.
Yes, I bought a Harley Davidson, and I look at it with shame sometimes too - for being American and yet willfully not being better.

I can avoid Apple, so I shall.
I can avoid many things, so I do.
Some things cannot be avoided, but it doesn't mean they are the right thing. (i.e. why do we always vote for the 'lesser of the two evils' in our elections?)

So, 'narrow"? Nah. Conscientiously enlightened? Perhaps.
Cheers,
Steve
