Actually, the report said that the policy was, in fact, meant to take the workload off of the technicians by making the doctors really consider whether a blood test was essential. In those respects, I think that the administrators had a really good idea, albeit a tedious and frustrating one. I know that I would be thinking twice about every blood test I ordered if I had to write "please" on every goddamn one. If there is anything I hate, it's being forced to show my appreciation, whether or not it's deserved.

um... i don't want to jump to conclusions, but saying that overpopulation is a disease is like saying i am a disease. yes, part of the problem is overpopulation, but "treating the symptoms of the disease" can only mean somehow lessening the population. maybe if you stated what your solution really was, people wouldn't jump to conclusions thinking that you want to kill off the surplus population.

I think it's less to do with creating a good image of Toyota and more to do with getting people thinking about Toyota. Just look at the hype this stupid prank has created. If some guy out there is thinking of buying a car but hasn't the first clue of what he should get, he will probably see this story in the news and the next thing you know he will be thinking "Toyota" the rest of the day and might actually get one.
