Jenkins expressed himself rather well. My impression TAVA will get all the business it can handle. And..... There will be hell to pay! by many, many companies who have their heads in the sand.

I am rechecking other investments I have. I wonder how many companies will fail? The Lawyers are going to make a fortune and there will be a lot of top brass, passing the buck.

If this is indeed true, it seems to be one heck of a selling point for TAVA services.

Also, I would still like to find out if TAVA is in a position to earn any revenues from the work done by a company's engineers trained by TAVA, or if revenues from this area would be limited to just the training. I emailed the question to SL, but have not yet received a response.
