test – the kind they give you to find out if you are nuts. There is no
content, just ink blots, and you fill in the content. What you see is what you
got. And if the passion isn’t there, that is obvious. Sounds to me like
the OS worked just fine, and that the sponsor got some vary valuable, albeit
negative information. Much better to cut your losses BEFORE the investment of
time, energy and money. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt'>Good point Harrison - my feeling is that some may have
been there for reasons other than the sponsor's specific invitation....maybe
because they thought they'd better show up rather than miss something, maybe
because they had vested, personal interests in the outcomes, maybe because they
wanted to network with the right people...and who knows what else???<br>
....leads me to ask, what are valid reasons for showing up?<br>
If folks answer the invitation and show up, are they the right people no matter
what their personal interests/agendas might be?<br>
Mmmm - I can't presume that they're there just to make up the numbers - there
must be a reason.....<br>
And might I add, one of the co-sponsors said after the event: "now I know
who <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>I don't wish to work</span></b> with on
this project" (lack of passion was evident).<br>
Cheers<br>
