**OT** BruceL..Greenspan stopped speaking?

A group of managers were given the assignment to
measure the height of a flagpole. They attack the
challenge with ladders and tape measures. Soon
they're falling off the ladders, dropping the tape
measures - the wholething is just a mess.

An engineer comes along and sees what they're
trying to do, walks over, pulls the flagpole
out of the ground, lays it flat, measures it
from end to end, gives the measurement to one
of the managers and walks away.

After the engineer has gone, one manager turns
to another and laughs. "Isn't that just like an
engineer, we're looking for the height and he
gives us the length."
