Hi Tim, Two questions regarding your comments: >I want to speak on (what **I** think) is this underlying REAL problem.
I could not understand what the real problem you describe is. Could you please define it once more? >But the reality is that we have been battling this for more than 45 >years while the rest of the world has moved on....... (see the video on >Youtube about IBM at Johns Hopkins in 1963) Would you mind explaining to where the world has moved on? I'd like to think that I have a decent view of the major work around the issues we have been discussing. So if someone has made significant progress about the things we've been discussing I'd really like to know.
