132545 -      enabled by SDS that supports "intelligence" capability,

132552 -
132553 -      Present balanced report, ref DIT 2 SR5K, like Wayne Wetzel,
132554 -      explaining downsides that using SDS for adding intelligence to

132557 -
132558 -      Explain Microsoft programs enable adequate intelligence using

132564 -      on 950927, ref SDS 9 8943, noting Intel was beginning to grasp
132565 -      the potential for integrting time and information management,
132566 -      ref SDS 9 466H, that SDS accomplishes, as explained in POIMS,
132567 -      ref OF 1 10YN, that enables people to gather and apply useful
132568 -      intelligence minute-by-minute, hour-by-hour, day-by-day over
132569 -      weeks, months and years, as Morris observed in the meeting at
132570 -      Intel on 000517. ref SDS 18 5073
132571 -      ..
132572 -      Offer to assist Morris pull a letter together, if he does
132573 -      not have enough time. ref DIT 2 IN6G  He can then edit to avoid
132574 -      implicating Intel in an effort to expedite using SDS for
132575 -      improving intelligence capability.
132576 -
132577 -      If a constructive statement could be prepared, Morris might be
132578 -      able to gain support of senior people by referencing Wayne's
132579 -      letter, and Pat's letter that hopefully will be along in a week
132580 -      or so, plus the long history of interaction with Intel, for
132581 -      example review of Andy Grove's book on 980307 that seems to call
132582 -      fairly explicitly for SDS capability. ref SDS 12 1660

132584 -
132585 -    [On 010924 called Morris and discussed Morris sending a letter to
