Hey man, don't get in a lather.

You said that you didn't think *anyone* said those things. I said they  
did. You said you didn't believe me because I didn't cite it. I cited  
it.

I never said these philosophies were (a) popular, (b) showed  
successful long-term results, or (c) I agreed with them. All I said is  
that I know people who had said they thought it was a bad move to  
reduce complexity because it would impact their market share.

I've always been in agreement with you that it was a stupid way for  
them to proceed -- very short sighted and not in the best interest of  
their organization. But people do and say all kinds of crazy things.

So, don't get all flustered at me just because these people have  
foolish ideas.

Hugs & kisses,

Jared
