No, it's self preservation.  They have been effectively slammed with a
corporate 'gag' order.  This in turn will have to effect the work they do,
afterall they can not at all, now, speak plainly, nor truthfully at least
to/with their clients, let alone in company meetings that include only
themselves.  The political nature of the game has become so intense in
recent times.  And polictics all all money based, and funded in double
talk, not just political double talk, but, corpoarte/management double
talk.  It's getting to the point that in technical meetings I have to
weight the use of terms like 'kludge' and how it's going to stirr one
group into a poltical reaction to anothers use of the term in trying to
weigh possible solutions to a problem.  and M$ is *not* a driving fator in
these cases <smile>.

Thanks,

OK, so you're a Ph.D.  Just don't touch anything.
