I'm reminded of a story I heard years ago in which the IT manager (or DPM as we would have called him then) was showing the CEO around his busy department. They poked their heads round the door of one office whose single occupant, quite oblivious to the intrusion, was staring fixedly at the wall in front of him. "Who's that?" asked the CEO. "He's my chief programmer," said the DPM. "Why isn't he doing anything?" the CEO demanded. "He's thinking." "Well, I don't want him thinking," protested the CEO. "I want him writing programs." :-) Dave... ======================================================= The opinions expressed in this communication are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of my employer.
