It seems fitting to post Shelley's poem about an emperor whose statue lies wrecked in the desert sand.
So Apple are soft to the core. Renaming Lake Ontario is the ultimate in grovelling servitude to an old man struggling with early onset dementure. Shame on you Apple cos you know long after Trump's image has crumbled away like Ozimandias in the desert, it will STILL be called Lake Ontario by EVERYONE
