We have the technology. We can rebuild it...
Now THAT's a campaign strategy.... nothing short of "kissing babies" while stomping the campaign trail!!!
Can't say that's playin' dirty. Just taking note.

There's an old theory about IN BASKETS.....
The most recent items placed on top of the stack of old tasks in an IN-BASKET get worked first. With each new addition to the top of the stack, those items in the bottom of the stack languish for longer and longer periods as it is buried deeper and...
