Not long ago the makers of Arnold bread bought out Brownberry bakery and they changed one of the recipes of the original Brownberry breads. Individually, so many peaple filed complaints that within 90 days the recipe was changed back even the label was made to look more like the original and it clealy stated - ORIGINAL RECIPE.

Individuals did that, not as a group, not as a consensus. What we do as individuals makes a difference. If nothing else we feel better about ourselves for making a commitment to uphold an ethical choice.


Do you not realize that this part of your post completely contradicts itself?

The fact that a bunch of " individuals " placed complaints turned them INTO a group.

You think if ONE or TWO " individuals " had complained that the company would have cared?

Sheesh.

When Tiger Stadium closed after the 1999 season and the Detroit Tigers moved into Comerica Park, the owner of the team tried to save a few bucks by using the same hot dogs, but boiling them rather than grilling them like they did at Tiger Stadium.

Well..a WHOLE BUNCH of " individuals " basically went into full revolt and boycotted the hot dogs until the owner gave in and put grills in for the hot dogs.

Once there are enough " individuals " doing something, they BECOME a group.

Individuals do basically nothing without forming some kind of group to get things done.


A whole bunch of individuals has to start with one.

so true,,, and the english language is tricky

one definition of group implies organization or specifically, 'assembly'


2 a : a number of individuals assembled together or having some unifying relationship



so ONE person can file a lawsuit similar to a lawsuits filed by NUMBERS of people everywhere,,,, and they have filed individual suits


or individuals can ASSEMBLE to file one lawsuit as a group


I think your post made perfect sense
