I'm not sure you can blame it on ignorance.

Dear Wolfgang,
I am in no way trying - not even in a a such position - to limit

this list is meant to help LibO and its users - not to humiliate
or calling names,
Since the average IQ is around 60 (or something utterly abysmal like
that) i don't think intelligent decision-making really entered the
equation.
The average IQ is - per definition - equal to 100. It's even calibrated
to be a normal distribution.
Sincerely,
Wolfgang

Most certainly you must be right.

In many (most) companies/organizations (other than IT) the managers
have quite little own knowledge in IT why they do not have many
alternatives: they have to buy the IT from outside (more or less)
experts or build up a IT-dept of their own.
Dedicated IT departments are well known and well

Dan's statement is also a very good one. Another BINGO if you want so.
However, an exchange of opinions should also be possible. Was the discussion on morons too long?
Depends on the criteria applied...

Hello Pertti,
I couldn't agree more with you! I used to work for Mother Blue for nearly

it occurred to me from time to time that we IT specialists thought that
IT was the only worthwhile endeavour. But, clearly, the business
