> This is the weirdest revisionist history I've ever heard. I thought we were supposed to find less abrasive ways to engage each other, around these parts. In any case, I admit that I could have phrased it better. What I meant, was that “professionals” laughed at it (and there were a lot of them), but “customers,” did not. I worked for a company, where they literally laughed in my face, when I told them “This thing will be trouble for us.” A few years later, their own product line was a smoking crater in the ground.
