Since you brought up Accenture--A few weeks ago in
Interactive Week magazine the Operator #9 column ran
the following:
"Telecom consultant David S. Isenberg doesn't like the
trend among consulting firms to rename themselves with
appellations that don't really mean anything. In
particular, he detests Accenture, the new name that
Andersen Consulting adopted at the first of the year.
With that in mind, Isenberg has proposed some names
for consulting firms that "mean something":
Arrogantrix, BillableHours, Bullshient, Embezzalon,
MyopX, Outsorx2us, Stupiture and XpenZV. I presume
he'll keep "isen.com" as the name of his own
consulting company."
Maybe the consulting arm of Macromedia-Allaire should
rename themselves to Mallairia.

quiz.
Accenture Quiz
The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and
tells
whether you are qualified to be a "professional."
Scroll down for
each answer. The questions are not that difficult.
1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
Scroll Down
The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in
the giraffe
and close the door.
This question tests whether you tend to do simple
things in an
overly complicated way.
2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?
Wrong Answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the
elephant and
close the refrigerator.
Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the
giraffe, put
in the elephant and close the door. This tests your
ability to
think through the repercussions of your actions.
3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All
the animals
attend except one. Which animal does not attend?
Correct Answer: The Elephant. The Elephant is in the
refrigerator.
This tests your memory. OK, even if you did not answer
the first
three questions correctly, you still have one more
chance to show
your abilities.
4. There is a river you must cross. But it is
inhabited by
crocodiles. How do you manage it?
Correct Answer: You swim across. All the Crocodiles
are attending
the Animal Meeting. This tests whether you learn
quickly from
your mistakes.
According to Accenture, around 90% of the
professionals they tested got all questions wrong. But
many
preschoolers got several correct answers. Accenture
says this conclusively disproves the theory that most
professionals have the brains of a four year old.
