Sorry, but I can't help butting in now. I once read a study regarding men and women debating. In the case of women either being debated by men or women, they felt when they were slammed or beat in the debate, they said they would rather never have anything to do with the opponent again. In the case of the men, when they were stomped by an opponent they had a desire to go have a beer with them and pat them on the back.

Now, for the folks outside of the "ring", if you are women, remember Gary and Glen are just trying to bond across great geographical boundaries. If you are men, find a way to get close to them and buy them a beer!

I once had a boss that made me send him all my emails before anyone else could see them. Then, he had me read them in front of him. The excercise made me realize when it was good to send a limited, unemotional contextual missive to someone versus picking up the phone to avoid misperception. Best advice I ever had.

I sure appreciate all that you, Gary and Glen, contribute and especially the differences in viewpoints.
