Hamasaki: The good news is that denial is over... The panic has started.
'Here are the signs. Budgets are being revised upward every few weeks. Yes, a
few people think they're making good progress, and perhaps one or two are, but
most are fooling themselves, the old, a project takes 80 percent of the
resources to get to the 80 percent complete point, then it takes another 80
percent of the resources to make the next 20 percent.
We've seen several people say that they're at 65%, or completed their
assessment, inventory, have their 'methodology' (whatever that is) in place
and now <wave a few hands> we just have to change some software and run it
through QA, so we're almost done....
NoooOOO, you haven't started. You're at the first U.S. Civil war at the
opening battle and are about to get your butt whipped.. wiped... whatever.
This is the opening battle, miniballs are zinging, ka-boom, a canon goes off,
hey, this isn't like Y2K computer boot camp. What the h*ll is this .....

We never saw anything like that.... can I fake it? Pretend, like a manager.
Is anyone looking? Maybe I can slip out. I'm scared. Whaaaaa... I don't
wanna be here.
