As usual it's all about Money. I couldn't even name a single participant. It's meaningless to me.

They say to invest only where a return is expected. This time I really don't see a Cash Bonanza return that justifies the insane expense of upgrading facilities.
Misread. I now see that Skuta was commenting that the idea that National Pride was not a real thing. It is surely an abstract noun/ concept?
