Andreas -
re: I was driving back from key west and some jerk jackknifed his oil tanker
I KNEW IT!!! and I hate it when that happens - when I lived in the bay area there was a point on the commute down 680 towards San Jose where you committed to one way or the other (680 or cut over to 880) - usually, about 30 seconds after I passed the fatal exit the nice lady would come on the radio and say "Oh, bad news, a tanker truck full of (hazardous material XXX) just flipped on (whichever route I had taken) and all lanes are closed - looks like it will be a while, so sit back and enjoy the music"... whoever was on the receiving end when I finally got to the office would usually just take the rest of the day off...

No-- no fighting,, LOL! <<"merely sensed a slight overzealousness which appeared to color is objectivity">> Hell he WORKS for them. He should have a 'feel' for what is happening no matter what level as he seems tuned into the company. Having read his posts I wonder why he stays with them,, surely not for the stock options,, LOL!

Andreas:

You need CPQ's new AERO handheld, or should I say new iPAQ w/ wireless data connectivity. You could have been reading/posting on this thread during those 3 hours.

<<if you're reading this - I continue to look forward to your posts.>> Count on me staying here, though it's taking a lot more 'guts' to post here being a CPQ employee.
