And I recall that once he replied to a school girl's question - maybe about similar triangles and some relationship (?). He gave a quite clear explanation in plain English; not a patronizing bone in his body. (Damn.. is there anybody Conscious left around, at all?)

Um, wait, is that kind of like trying to be insulting by calling Lenin a commie? Dang. "Software salesman" is about the best insult I have, short of going into old-fashioned Spanish-Arabic mode and exploring deep questions of metaphorical ancestry. Seems to be a pretty decent place, all the more so because the veneer of professionalism is rather thin and cracked. "Full of courtesy, full of craft" and nobody seems full of courtesy except the CEO. -------------------------- A Ben Franklin quote that a certain plumbing company completely misuses in their very annoying ad. Maybe they don't realize that "craft" isn't short for "craftsmanship". ---- Sometime you the windshield, sometime you the bug, sometime you the driver you turn on the windshield washer you keep going.

IOW you hit it hard on the head with that reference to E's humor. -drl
