[Superman]

I need to run off to a meeting, but I can see that Wayne has probably been wondering how long it will take Superman to find the OT Forum. I'll try to stay away for all your sakes, but here is some food for thought. Our construction contracts have two components. "Design" and "construction." One might suggest that since no construction occurs under the "design" budget, that this money is wasted. On the other hand, I'm not sure you want us building an international airport without designing it first.

You all do paperwork. If we reduce your business to just direct customer contact, and assume that all the supporting efforts are wasted resources, then your business will skin its nose on the sidewalk and then be trampled by the competitors that continue to focus on the administrative necessities.

You might be aware that I am pretty disappointed at the ignorant government-bashing I hear. All government-bashers are either deliberately self-serving political game players, or they are OUTSIDE the public policy making arena, guessing and being suspicious about a process they do not understand. Here is some more food for though:

Goverment is not THEM. Government is "us." If that's not true for you, then discuss sports, not politics.
