My general impression of the Sys-Con is that there are fundamental problems in the way the company operates internally that are holding them back from solving whatever their problems are. I really think they want to change, and in several ways they have, but there's just something internally holding them back. I don't know if this is a mangement thing, a money thing, or a management of money thing, but my impression is just that they don't have it entirely together and lack the fundamental ability to get it together.
I think Simon (and others) have done and are doing everything they can to make positive changes in the organization, but I smell a fundamental problem that goes deeper than the people we know over there. I did enjoy the 3 issues of JDJ I got for free for a couple of years. Something tells me that they use to keep subscriptions in an Excel "database". Or, if they are like alot of companies I know, in Powerpoint. :) -Cameron On 8/21/06, Michael Dinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Like the company or not, the very existence of CFDJ is a good thing and I > would not want it to go away.
