201821 -  ..
201822 - When demand exceeds Gary's capacity to meet, as he anticipated on
201823 - 030830, ref SDS 35 8490, Aerospace company now has on file contact information on

201827 - The letter to Gary says....
201828 -
201829 -    1.  Thanks very much for all of your support and counsel the past
201830 -        month or so, getting SDS officially approved for use on the
201831 -        job.  Your steady hand and knowledge of corporate culture have
201832 -        been timely and telling in advancing the ball at Aerospace company,
201833 -        ref DIT 1 0001, shown by recent results on 040318. ref SDS 46
201834 -        0001
201836 -         ..
201837 -    2.  These results address in part your letter on February 29 asking
201838 -        about the future of SDS? ref SDS 42 0001  With your help, the
201839 -        future seems to be looking up, ref SDS 42 OW5O, based on
201840 -        implementing the 3-step strategy, ref DIT 1 W06J, set in the
201841 -        annual review on 040102. ref SDS 42 OX3N
201843 -         ..
201844 -    3.  Please let me know, if you have further questions on business
201845 -        planning in light of analysis of your letter on 040229.
201846 -        ref DIT 1 417M
201848 -         ..
201849 -    4.  Your letter to Jack Park on 040227 referenced the annual review
201850 -        on 040102 for an accurate record of experience using SDS at
201851 -        Aerospace company last year, ref SDS 41 NM6H, which Jack had
201852 -        asked about in a letter to us on 040221, ref SDS 40 RZ4O,
201853 -        evidently resulting from the letter to you on 040211,
201854 -        suggesting there is a powerful story to tell on transformation
201855 -        you are engendering at Aerospace company, ref SDS 39 X84G,
201856 -        based on the annual review of the work during 2003, and of
201857 -        course considering subsequent events the past few months.
201858 -        ref DIT 1 X56J  Jack received a copy of the letter to you on
201859 -        040211, and then turned this over a week or so later on 040221
201860 -        into a strong letter asking you to come tell the story at SRI
201861 -        on using SDS at Aerospace company. ref SDS 40 4U6O  In addition
201862 -        to your response to Jack on 040227, you sent another letter to
201863 -        Jack on 040229, which is reported on 040301, explaining the
201864 -        power of knowledge enabled by SDS, based on experience at
201865 -        Aerospace company during 2003. ref SDS 43 JJ9O
201867 -         ..
201868 -    5.  These events have long since been lost in the fog of war, as
201869 -        well they should, because you have to concentrate on many more
201870 -        meetings on the job tomorrow and the next day and the next and
201871 -        so on..., ref DIT 1 X57Y, illustrating how information overload
201872 -        brings that entropy grinds productivity to a hault, reported by
201873 -        USAFIT, reviewed on 970707, ref SDS 1 0108, and more recently
201874 -        by Eric Armstrong on 011003. ref SDS 24 EC5N
201876 -         ..
201877 -    6.  This letter focuses on two issues floating by, ref DIT 1 X587,
201878 -        in the continuing stream of information.... (see POIMS),
201879 -        ref OF 4 HO4H
201881 -         ..
201882 -    7.  Previously, on 040211, a letter requested feedback on the
201883 -        annual review, ref SDS 39 SJ5L, and further discussed you
201884 -        preparing an evaluation along the lines of Wayne Wetzel's
201885 -        report on using SDS at DNRC over a long period, ref DIT 1 X57P,
201886 -        as reviewed in the record on 010725. ref SDS 23 WJ7L
201888 -         ..
201889 -    8.  Do you expect there to be further review of the record on
201890 -        040102, ref SDS 36 0001, reporting on work using SDS at
201891 -        Aerospace company during 2003? ref DIT 1 X598  Do your letters
201892 -        on 040227, ref DRP 2 0001, and then on 040229 adequately
201893 -        address this matter? ref DRP 3 0001
201895 -         ..
201896 -    9.  Have you had a chance to read Wayne's report on using SDS at
201897 -        DNRC, and do you feel this lines up pretty well with your
201898 -        experience at Aerospace company, or are there important
201899 -        differences that impact conclusions about technology
201900 -        development, ref SDS 42 JH9G, and business model, ref SDS 42
201901 -        JB7I, issues raised in your letter on 040229?  Based on this
201902 -        common experience with Wayne, ref DIT 1 SN5M, do you now feel
201903 -        positioned to develop an evaluation of SDS along the lines
201904 -        developed for the draft under consideation by Pat Lincoln,
201905 -        currently dated 030417? ref OF 2 0001  My feeling is that we
201906 -        should try to get this done, but that somebody else should be
201907 -        the author, based on your personal ownership interest in SDS.
201908 -        This means there needs to be collaboration between you and a
201909 -        writer.  Jack Park might fit the bill, but since he is on the
201910 -        war path for the moment, reported on 040315, we need to find
201911 -        someone else. ref SDS 44 0001
201913 -         ..
201914 -   10.  Turning to your letter on February 29, ref SDS 42 JH9N, asking
201915 -        about the future of SDS, my feeling is that an important part
201916 -        of the future is to develop a continuing professional story
201917 -        that constructs a critical mass of credibility about the past
201918 -        applying SDS at PG&E, DNRC, USACE and now Aerospace company. ref DIT 1
201919 -        EY7N
201921 -         ..
201922 -   11.  Given your heavy schedule, the intent today is not to burden
201923 -        you with new distractions, but to let you know that orderly
201924 -        progress on action items maintains relentless pressure that
201925 -        turns no cost purchase orders into paying customers.  The
201926 -        engine of this effort remains turning out SDS records that are
201927 -        useful to people and getting them distrubuted as widely as
201928 -        possible.  So, from my perspective your primary responsibility
201929 -        is getting back to issuing SDS records and getting the intranet
201930 -        initiative off the ground. ref DIT 1 X55X These are the most
201931 -        critical steps of the strategy for the future of SDS, reviewed
201932 -        in your letter on 040229. ref SDS 42 PU5R
201934 -         ..
201935 -   12.  Gil's letter on 040318 mentioned that he discussed the intranet
201936 -        with you. ref SDS 46 G46N
201938 -         ..
201939 -        Was this incidental, or substantive, to helping Aerospace company turn on
201940 -        the lights of intelligence.? ref DIT 1 X567
201941 -
