Yeah, Bill can't appreciate that some corporate mahogany-lined meeting
room martini-guzzling luncheon marauders don't understand this.  They
see the latest ads "I'm a PeeCee and WEENDOZE was my idea" and force a
complete revamp of the department edict without consulting with those
who would know if the particular new WEENDOZE is capable of running an
application that is the backbone of the organization or if the provider
of said application has yet to product a version of their product that
will run under WEENDOZE 7-deadly-sins.  No, it's easier to malign and
insult those who have to, in order to feed the family, endure and tol-
erate their mindless edicts.
