The unanticipated marketing growth for Culcitate by small farms in colder climates...

Arthur Edens: Yes! Here we are, all together. Is everyone listening? 'Cause this is the moment you've been waiting for, a very special piece of paper, so let's have a big, paranoid, malignant round of applause... for United Northfield Culcitate Internal Research Memorandum #229! June 19th, 1991. "Conclusion: The unanticipated marketing growth for Culcitate by small farms in colder climates demands IMMEDIATE cost-benefit analysis." Hah. Would you like a little bit of legal advice? NEVER let a scientist use the words "unanticipated" and "immediate" in the same sentence. Okay? Okay. "In-house field studies have indicated small, short-season farms dependent on well water for human consumption are at risk for toxic, particulate concentrations at levels significant enough to cause serious human tissue damage." Well, this is a long way of saying that you don't even have to leave your house to be killed by our product, we'll pipe it into your kitchen sink. "Culcitate's great market advantage that it is tasteless, colorless, and does not precipitate, has the potential to mask and intensify these potentially lethal exposures." Now, I love this. Not only is this a great product, it is a superb cancer delivery system. "Chemical modifications of Culcitate product, or the addition of a detector molecule such as an odorant or a colorant, would require a top-down redesign of the Culcitate-manufacturing process. These costs, while assumed to be significant, were not summarized here." Which, loosely translated, means "it's going to cost a fortune to go back on this, and I'm just an asshole in a lab, so could someone else PLEASE make the decision?" "CLEARLY, the release of these internal research documents would compromise the effective marketing of Culcitate, and MUST be kept within the protective confines of United Northfield's trade secret language." You don't need me... to tell you what that means. Goodbye!

Would you guys like a little bit of legal advice
00:00:34.053 --> 00:00:36.096
Never let a scientist use the words
00:00:36.097 --> 00:00:41.001
unanticipated e immediate in the same sentence
00:00:41.064 --> 00:00:43.005
Okay Okay
00:00:43.071 --> 00:00:46.027
In house field studies have indicated
00:00:46.028 --> 00:00:48.003
that small short reason farms
00:00:48.031 --> 00:00:50.091
dependent on well water for human consumption
00:00:50.098 --> 00:00:55.018
are at risk for toxic particulate concentrations at levels
00:00:55.019 --> 00:00:59.032
significant enough to cause serious human tissue damage
00:00:59.046 --> 00:01:01.091
Well this is a long way of saying that
00:01:01.093 --> 00:01:04.999

We'll pipe it into your kitchen sink
00:01:08.033 --> 00:01:10.013
Culcitate's great market advantage Give me the phone
00:01:10.014 --> 00:01:13.001
That it is tasteless colorless and does not precipitate
00:01:14.011 --> 00:01:16.087
has the potential to mask and intensify
00:01:16.087 --> 00:01:19.081
these potentially lethal exposures
00:01:19.081 --> 00:01:21.005
Now I love this
00:01:21.061 --> 00:01:23.044
Not only is this a great product
00:01:23.078 --> 00:01:27.011
it is a superb cancer delivery system
00:01:27.059 --> 00:01:30.996
Chemical modifications of the Culcitate product
00:01:30.999 --> 00:01:34.028
the addition of a detector molecule such as an odorant or colorant
00:01:34.001 --> 00:01:39.073
would require a top down redesign of the Culcitate manufacturing process
00:01:40.002 --> 00:01:45.000
These costs while assumed to be significant were not summarized here
00:01:45.017 --> 00:01:46.097
Which loosely translated means
00:01:46.097 --> 00:01:51.001
It's going to cost a fortune to go back on this and I'm an asshole in a lab
00:01:51.999 --> 00:01:54.034
So could someone else please make the decision
00:01:54.081 --> 00:01:59.005
Clearly the release of these internal research documents
00:01:59.998 --> 00:02:01.999
would compromise the effective marketing of Culcitate
00:02:02.001 --> 00:02:05.001
and must be kept within the protective confines
00:02:05.001 --> 00:02:08.062
of United Northfield's trade secret language
00:02:10.002 --> 00:02:13.001
You don't need me to tell you what that means
00:02:14.999 --> 00:02:15.059
