So, it wasn’t just what we were reporting out afterwards, wasn’t just our word. And halfway through last year, it just became clear that we couldn’t do all of this on our own. Not all businesses can close their doors on a single day, and it just doesn’t work necessarily.

Jacqui, I can't tell you how many times I've wondered why people bother to get together if one -- or both -- are consumed with their Blackberries the entire time.

By the same token, I appreciate it when someone lets me know by when they will have something for me and if they can’t have it done by that date, then I like it when they get back to me to say when I can expect it.
