Methinks the lady doth protesteth too much. My reaction was not a complaint, my good man, nor any other form of judgement, but a slapstick response to Mark's tongue-in-cheek query as to how IBM came up with the sweeping generalization that "most shops run with a value of 50,000" and his mock offense that IBM obviously slighted his installation from inclusion in that group. But then, that's what happens when you take a sound byte out of context, instead the whole passage, including Mark's post and my parting comment: "Thanks for the laugh. Excuse me while I acquire some napkins to dry my monitor..." To wit, I say, "Slow down and buy some gas!"
