101102 - ref DIP 2 line 27 to David Theroux at the Independent Institute.

1014 - Discussion
1015 -
101501 - I explained the background and my interest in whether modern enter-
101502 - prises can accomplish David Packard's management methods, ref SDS 1
101503 - line 125.
101504 - ..
101505 - Explained the general concepts of POIMS and Communication
101506 - Metrics. Advised I am seeking support to write a book and do a study
101507 - to test the extent to which SDS can lift or leverage the capacity to
101508 - think, remember and communicate.
101509 -
101510 - Ron expressed interest in these ideas.  He asked to review the papers
101511 - so we can discuss them carefully.  Ron gave the following address for
101512 - submitting the papers:

101514 -                        Ron Howard

101518 -  ..
101519 -
101520 - He made the observation that discussion permits wider lattitude in
101521 - communications.  I explained the paper on NWO suggests that because
101522 - conversation is inherently discursive it lacks a metric essential to
101523 - avoid error, particularly when a lot of it occurs during a day.
