Ms D.Vine -- Material Problems, Logical Conclusion ?

Having read the Vole's latest missive I began to think where this process might lead if taken to it's logical conclusion. If every company adopted the fashionable "no stock" policy what would happen to the poor chap waiting for his 5 fence posts?

Well he would be in for a long wait. If the order has to be passed down the supply chain, somewhere in the world, someone has just gone out and planted a sapling with AV's name on it. Presumably delivery will be in 10 to 20 years depending on type of wood, local rainfall etc etc.

Is this progress I ask ?
