Smart guy. Everyone knows that humans are much cheaper to run than
computers, can run 24/7/365, and can do things faster and more
automatically too. What's more, the tasks they know how to do can be
transferred instantly to others without any flaws in copying. What's more,
humans' power to cope with tasks is roughly doubling every 18 months, while
their cost remains the same.
At least the last bit seems to remain true.. and some accountancy
techniques (aka "downsizing") seem to be forcing the one before it.
