Those of us used to writing technical and business reports
know how difficult it can be to use just the right phrase to
convey the true depth of your topic. Now, professionals and
students alike can seem like etymological geniuses, thanks to
the "Systematic Buzz Phrase Projector" created by Phillip
Broughton, a U.S. Public Health Service official. Using only
30 carefully chosen buzz words, you can woo your way through
any written or oral presentation:
*Column 1* *Column 2* *Column 3*
0. integrated 0. management 0. options
1. total 1. organizational 1. flexibility
2. systematized 2. monitored 2. capability
3. parallel 3. reciprocal 3. mobility
4. functional 4. digital 4. programming
5. responsive 5. logistical 5. concept
6. optional 6. transitional 6. time-phase
7. synchronized 7. incremental 7. projection
8. compatible 8. third-generation 8. hardware
9. balanced 9. policy 9. contingency
USAGE: Randomly pick any three-digit number. Now select the
corresponding buzzword from each column. For instance, "748"
produces "synchronized transitional hardware", or "839" yields
"responsive reciprocal contingency", a phrase which can be
dropped into any report with the ring of authority. "No one
will have any idea what you're talking about," says Broughton,
"but they're probably not about to admit it."
