    Before some of us run to LasVegas to try to become better informed about what we do – I short interlude about what it means to work hard to be the one who actually knows how to do the thing – and how other people often react…

    I laughed. I cried. I pounded my head into the desk because I can relate.

    Thanks for the vid, Bill.

    Very amusing. FWIW, I try to avoid the word expert… given that an “ex” is a has been and a “spurt” is a drip under pressure…

    Thank god he finally got it in the end. “Experts” can be so obtuse at times. Rigid definitions, orthodox thinking process. Probably “believes” many things.

    The truth is, with a little out of the box thinking, he could’ve actualized the paradigm in a creativity-enabled overall encompassment. Saying things like “geometry” is also patronizing and elitist — I’m surprised he wasn’t immediately asked either to resign or issue a statement of regret. Shocking, really.
