John Matteson; Exchange Manager Geac Corporate Infrastructure Systems and Standards (404) 239 - 2981 Defeat is a state of mind. No one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality. To me, defeat in anything is merely temporary, and its punishment is but an urge for me to greater effort to achieve my goal. Defeat simply tells me that something is wrong in my doing; it is a path leading to success and truth. --Bruce Lee -----Original Message----- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 10:52 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: OT Upgrade question If its not broke <> it won't break Or, in the words of the financial investment community: "Past performance is no guarantee of future performance" Its going to break.
