A spam email I got, I think they must be using the term 'star' very loosely here
Mr Jones related an incident from "some time back" when IBM Canada Ltd. of Markham, Ontario, ordered some parts from a new supplier in Japan. The company noted in its order that acceptable quality allowed for 1.5% defects (a fairly high standard in North America at that time).The Japanese sent the order, with a few parts packaged separately in plastic. The accompanying letter said: "We don't know why you want 1.5% defective parts, but for your convenience, we've packaged them separately."- excerpted from an article in The (Toronto) Globe and Mail
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.
