In reply to Paul Mags. It's a total hoot. The archaeologists strike again.

Archeologists digging through a modern landfill found a well-preserved hotdog from 40 years ago.

Not quite the Ancestral Pueblo’s corn cobs.

What will the future people think of us indeed.

Outlook has this wonderful feature called, “Out of Office.” When I was working I would activate it every Sunday night and turn it off Friday afternoon. Didn’t matter if I was in my office or not. It sure changes the expectations of the working universe. I got a lot accomplished because no one was expecting me to join their petty meetings or conference calls.

We’re losing history every day during this digital age.
All the letters written home by soldiers in the previous centuries used to gain insight into what the troops were feeling, along with many other hundreds of things.

All those things are now digital. Poof. Gone. No records.

Oh, and Mags, try saying “No.” to meetings when you’re really not needed at them. It’s empowering and actually lets you get some work done!

Mags surely you’re not suggesting that my constant moving digital figures around a spread sheet that no one looks at, is meaningless?!!
