080903 - Jason returned my call from the other day.  He said things are very
080904 - hectic at the airport, because they are completing a number of
080905 - projects.
080906 -
080907 - He has been reading copies of correspondence to others the past few
080908 - months on Communication Metrics.  Jason said he enjoys the reading,
080909 - but does not understand everything because he is a practical person.

080923 - ..
080924 - Jason feels Com Metrics is the system of the future, which
080925 - aligns with his assessment on 990622, ref SDS 46 UF9K, but the time to
080926 - introduce "intelligence" to management is when there are no problems
080927 - that require top management to expedite.
080928 -
080929 - He is headed for Hong Kong or some similar place to consult on air
080930 - port construction, and will be back in a few weeks.
