Rotarian Jim Rumpeltes, assisted by "Gil" the goldfish, discussed how ethics impact Rotary business as well as our daily lives. Jim, from Surprise, Ariz., presented several scenarios. One story involved a mother accidentally knocking her son's goldfish bowl over. She couldn't find the fish fast enough, so it died. Thinking she had just enough time to get a new goldfish before her son gets home, she hurried to the pet store. Unfortunately, her son arrives home to see her walking towards the house with the goldfish in the baggie. What should she say? A lively discussion followed. To everyone's dismay, Jim threw Gil into the crowd at the end of his presentation. It turns out this Gil was plastic!
