CSI Miami is doing "dead peasants."
Flat out saying that it affords incentive to murder employees to improve the bottom line.

1. Yes
My spouse had never heard of "dead peasants." I told him I had read about the practice online. Thanks DU!

3. Now that's important
Although posts that say nothing like "you can't make this up" are even more important.

6. This is off-topic, but could you tell me how you came up with your screen name?
I know that Mullard is the name of a British electronics company, and 12ax7 is the designation of a twin-triode "valve" (vacuum tube) from the years that I worked as an electronics technician.

7. In Age of Empires one of the best ways to win
is swoop in with calvary and massacre all of your opponents peons.

10. FYI, becareful on spoliers please
I've had this happen before on websites, there are people who watch this on a day or two delay. Fortunately your title didn't give anything away, but I people sometimes don't realize others record this or watch it a day or two after. In my case I'm out of the country and can't watch (even online) so I have to download them and it usually takes two days.

The one example is someone spoiled the outcome of an important episode of West Wing a couple years ago. I have never let the person live it down.

(I did eventually meet him and he turned out to be a great friend, even despite the fact he blew it for me)
