251601 - Follow up ref SDS 78 HV7M.

251603 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Eric Armstrong today commenting on a
251604 - letter yesterday responding to Eric's analysis of proposals for a
251605 - Manhattan Project to develop KM. ref DIP 8 0001
251607 -  ..
251608 - Eric says...
251609 -
251610 -     Interesting point, Rod [...in your letter today].
251611 -
251612 -     You are saying, in effect, that we are in 1902 with respect to
251613 -     having a good knowledge theory, and that if an Einstein came up
251614 -     with it today, we'd be ready to implement it about 2050.
251616 -      ..
251617 -     I sure hope we can improve on that!
251619 -  ..
251620 - Eric is responding to analysis suggesting that KM needs some clues and
251621 - theories about "knowledge" and "management" in order to launch a
251622 - Manhattan Project to develop KM, shown in the record yesterday on
251623 - 020718. ref SDS 78 ZE4G
251625 -  ..
251626 - Einstein was cited as having developed in 1903 clues about how to
251627 - convert matter into a lot of energy that when configured in a
251628 - particular way would explode with significantly greater force that
251629 - other bombs.  As a result, there were a cadre of scientists and
251630 - engineers who had studied implementation for about 40 years by the
251631 - time the Manhattan project was launched in 1942.
251633 -  ..
251634 - Eric's worry that the Einstein/atom bomb analogy translates to a
251635 - comparable effort for KM in 2050 overlooks the suggestion in the
251636 - letter that said POIMS has a lot of clues about transitioning from
251637 - information to a culture of knowledge. ref SDS 78 5A6N and ref SDS 78
251638 - JU8N
251640 -  ..
251641 - A road map was explained on what tasks for practioners to follow in
251642 - order to learn about KM. ref SDS 78 HV7M
251644 -  ..
251645 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 saying...
251646 -
251647 -     Check the back seat of the car.  Sometimes we overlook things when
251648 -     rushed.  The minds eye looks past the obvious.  For example, Doug
251649 -     began work on the problem of using technology to improve
251650 -     management in the 1960s, and Professor Miller did earlier work in
251651 -     1950s on explaining human cognition.  SDS was begun in the 1980s
251652 -     that melds these ideas.  Doing the math, it may be time to seize
251653 -     the moment, if only we have time to listen. ref OF 2 6221
251655 -  ..
251656 - Reference to the back seat of the car is to the letter on 020718
251657 - recalling that Eric left the POIMS paper that has the secret of KM in
251658 - his car. ref SDS 78 P15H
251660 -  ..
251661 - The reference to George Miller is to the record on 990303. ref SDS 15
251662 - 6177
251664 -  ..
251665 - The reference to Doug Engelbart is to Doug's award for the National
251666 - Medal for Technology, reported on 001114. ref SDS 42 SU3L
251668 -  ..
251669 - Reference to SDS reflects history reported on 000723. ref SDS 37 0001
251670 - and ref SDS 37 0008
251671 -
251672 -      [On 020723 letter to OHS/DKR suggests using SDS to complement
251673 -      reviewing POIMS for learning KM. ref SDS 79 0001  Need to see
251674 -      some effort to link the record showing people are ready for KM.
