I just love how corporations are so good at doing their planning these days
- they train people so that they have the right skills for the tasks
*before* the tasks arise, and then when they do, they set those trained
people to work applying those skills. And they make sure that their
employees have just the right backup when there's a crunch on.
"Gee, all its needs is a bit of computer programming. ANYONE HERE USE A
COMPUTER? You? OK, come into the office. Now,..."
Not to belittle you at all, Jerry - you're a brave man fighting some
remarkable odds. Unless you founded the company, in which case one might
say shame on you.
Willing to help on the AS stuff, though I suspect it's outside my
experience - and that others will respond more quickly.
