Dear Hank,
..
The quote you have fashioned to introduce your remarks at the Asilomar
Conference in July
correctly recognizes the goal of bringing order to the New World
Order of chaos created by
technology that compresses time and distance. For many, the
distinction between information and knowledge is a major awakening. We want
to make this easy to remember as a critical ingredient for making
the Information Highway productive in the 21st century.
..
The NWO paper uses "knowledge" to mean connecting information, time, and
context for establishing and refining the accuracy of cause and effect. These
steps are supported by SDS technology, which you will see on Wednesday, and
are embodied in the call for a new management science of Communication Metrics
that enables a better partnership between leadership and technology that makes
management effective.
..
Here is another take on a quote you might consider approving....
Thanks very much.
Sincerely,
THE WELCH COMPANY
Rod Welch
