>>>I hope everyone better understands what I've been talking about.

Keep trying ;-) Since 'egghead' is generally equated with 'intelligent' you have to have slightly insulted almost everybody you either included or excluded in that crack.

Maybe this is a good time to point out that you can edit your remarks on SI for up to 15 minutes. I sympathize with you in that a number of times 15 minutes was not quite enough time for me to remove some inflammatory bit I later had occasion to regret.

In the case of SGI it would appear that your quote blames the sales staff. Are those the eggheads you meant?

Cheers,
Chaz

A perfect example of "Eggheads" with the "Egghead Mentality":

If you want to brown nose us, call us "guru" or "hacker" (wink,wink).

You might think I'm joking with ya, but I'm serious about climbing the corporate ladder. You need zero college courses. You need to learn how to draw charts and run/create meetings. You must become a great liar and butt kisser. Learn how to sabotage other department projects, since their success will make your department look bad. Nothing is ever wrong, everything is going great. Your group is "Advance Technology" .

Read Dilbert. A lot of great ideas in there.

I'm reading you like a book. I agree with you 100 percent that the best way to do something is not always the one that makes it. It usually doesn't and I know exactly why. Read Dilbert instead of going to class, Sal.

You'll go far.

You learn a lot by studying your hero's Hero.
