McDonald's Interactive announced today that it is striking out on its own from parent company McDonald's. The announcement was made at the International Serious Games Event in Birmingham, England. "We can no longer stand by while McDonald's corporate policies help lead the planet to ruin," said Andrew Shimery-Wolf, co-director of the former Interactive Division.

McDonald's Interactive was formed four years ago to help the company adapt to new market conditions.

I see it as a positive sign that not everyone inside the Supercompanies is a money controlled, careless idiot.

The more people start thinking,  the better

This made me think of a quote from the movie "The Matrix."

I'd like to share a...revelation I had, during my time here.

It came to me when I tried to...classify your species. I

realized that you're not _actually_ mammals. Every mammal on

this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with

the surrounding environment but...you humans do _not_. You

move to an area..._and_ you _multiply_...until every natural

resource is _consumed_. The only way you can survive is to..

spread to _another_ area. There is another organism on this

planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is?

A virus. Humans beings are a _disease_, a _cancer_ of this

planet...and _we_...are the cure.
