I used Covey’s “Seek first to understand, and then be understood.” ALL of his stuff wasn’t junk. It was this method of communication that can be tedious.

I was also a big fan of Demming. That guy made Japan the height tech/quality fanatics they are today.

Just be thankful you never had to give a cat a suppository.

Having an organized discussion is against the freeper bylaws!

Some posted positions are so idiotic that they are not comprehendible let alone sane and could cause undue mental anguish and risk to normal brain activity trying to paraphrase unequivocal lunacy. Thus the creation of the zot for idiocy, larceny, name calling, and other unruly behavior and attitudes. I just wait for Laz to give his synopsis and reaction when unfreeper like views are presented or name calling occurs and the moderator has not shown up yet or in before the Zot or Viking kittins.

OK, if we start from the premise that 80% of what we find on the internet is wrong (by commission or omission or ignorance), post no links, and give real citations. Nah, I guess that’s too much work.

That reminds me of this:
“To understand everything is to forgive everything.”

Oh how we laughed and laughed
Except I wasn’t laughing
Under the circumstances
I’ve been shockingly nice
