at least he's made an impression on them - which is true all the way up to Scott Guthrie. Harry M. Miller would be the first person to agree that the only bad press coverage is none at all... actually this is a benefit to Microsoft - if you'll allow me to go thru the thinking... I know Barnes, worked with the guy - he haunts me around every corner, being in the same city 'n' all If Barnes is on-form, he'll be stiring the bejesus out of people, just to get people thinking - getting "mossy". Microsoft has so many holes that a good bit of shaking could wake them up to smell the roses. "Like"? sounds like an old-boy's network disapproving of someone from outside because they're not like them. Someone hired Barnes knowing full well what he's like. It's not hard to find his incredibly acidic old blog posts, especially since I was sitting right next to him - going thru the same experiences - watching him document them. And he's *still* there in a MS chair... Nah, Barnes (as a concept) is a cunning plan, Baldric. At the very least it's entertainment... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
