060405 - working at HP, reported on 930825 1000, ref SDS 3 OD6S
060407 -  ..
060408 - Nina suffered severe allergeric reaction to soy, during a visit with
060409 - Ross and Claudia, within the past 10 years.  Not sure, could have
060410 - been more recent.
060412 -  ..
060413 - Claudia took Nina to a pharmacy to get medication because Nina was not
060414 - feeling well.  While at the pharmacy, Nina's symptoms worsened

070402 - Daily Work Communicating Persuasively Tiring Ovewhelming
070403 -
070404 - Ross seemed to say today, that his work communicating with customers
070405 - and with colleagues on the job is emotionally and intellectually
070406 - stressful, and exhausting.  He therefore does not like to expend
070407 - effort on analysis and complex communication outside of work, at least
070408 - in the same degree, because he is "burned out" after work, and just
070409 - wants to relax.  As a result, Ross expressed great reluctance to
070410 - discuss SDS and associated ideas, objectives, planning.

070412 -            [On 101013 2239 Kath's daughter, Patty, makes this point
070413 -            exhaustively. ref SDS 14 QQ7R
070415 -  ..
070416 - Ross then asked about SDS development and marketing prospects, which
070417 - seems conflicting with his initial reluctnce, and so presents a
070418 - certain schizophrenia on the issue, dating to the telecon on 890809
070419 - 2103. ref SDS 1 LQ5O
070421 -  ..
070422 - Why?
070424 -  ..
070425 - SDS support for augmenting intelligence has proven difficult for folks
070426 - to grasp becaujse intelligence works on "automatic pilot." People
070427 - don't have to think about how intelligence works, because it occurs
070428 - innately, explained in POIMS. ref OF 3 UN3L  Therefore, without
070429 - experience considering the issues, they seem overwhelming, foreign,
070430 - and odd.  At the same time, however, people are drawn and intrigued by
070431 - the prospect that intelligence can be aided, and in some cases are
070432 - impressed by SDS work product.  Coping with competing mental states
070433 - becomes emotionally exhausting, illustrated by the call with Morris on
070434 - 920215 1009. ref SDS 2 5820  Andy Grove makes a similar point in his
070435 - book "Only the Paranoid Survive," recounting experience as CEO guiding
070436 - Intel through transformation from manufacturing memory chips to
070437 - microprocessors, reported on 980307 1614. ref SDS 4 2648
070439 -  ..
070440 - Ross suggested selling SDS as diary programs for different situations,
070441 - e.g., personal diary, a doctor's diary, the engineer's diary, the
070442 - executive diary.
