Dear Doug, I am uncomfortable about making assumptions about blue collar workers. I worked as a Human Resources Director in a printing company for many years. I had the privelege of working with with many peopls labelled as blue collar . I found a diverse group of people -talented musicians , opera goers, poets, photographers- the list goes on. Working with the front line people was often more enlightening than with my "peers" on the senior management committee. Audrey

I don't have a frame of reference to those concepts. Thanks, Larry! Joelle-- I'm trusting our list's poet laureate can come up with a great new metaphor. <grin> (My wife is campaigning for popcorn as the top candidate.) Thanks, Joelle! Phil-- Thanks! I like your "teasing out strands of magic"--the astrophotography reference might turn off some of these people. John-- Yup, I think that will work with some folks, and yes, I am working with a lot of blue-collar type people on this project, so I agree with you that something physical would be best for them. Thanks, John! :-Doug.
