Nice work with the constructive criticism there, Trent.
Try thinking outside the box, or more to the point, the cubicle. Geeks sometimes
have to communicate with non-geeks, often the people paying them. Sometimes 
geeks
need to talk people into buying into an idea in the first place. To do that, 
they
need to present the idea. The better they can present it, the more likely that 
the
idea will be bought.

Does it make sense now?
