		<description><![CDATA[Here's a test: Take 12 random stills distributed evenly across the span of a movie and give them to someone in a random order. Ask that person to sort them based on their sequence in the movie.

Whether or not someone puts them together in the correct order is essentially random.

Unless... that person has seen some or all of that movie before.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So many in this business are focused on the "end goal" of The Delivery, yet they fail to miss the point: The Delivery is not the end, it is the beginning. The Delivery is the birth of the product. A successful product has a life beyond delivery, and perhaps even a death.  All of this is what most in the technology business call "Maintenance".]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Value is incompatible with Free. What can be the commitment to Free? If something is Free, then little or no value can be placed on it. As a customer, Free is worth every dollar you pay for it. As a vendor, the value of Free is inversely proportional to every dollar it costs you to deliver it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Trust is one of the most difficult things to earn from another human.  Perhaps <b>THE</b> most difficult thing.  Trust is made or lost purely in one's actions.  What brings trust from another?  Consistency in your actions.  And agreement between your words and your actions.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I've been a Blackberry user for five years, across three different devices, including the old two-way pager.  I've been interested in the iPhone since its release, but without real Exchange support, the first iPhone was not an option.  Then it became <a href="http://twitter.com/gcrisp/statuses/870957425">a personal challenge to keep my Blackberry alive as long as possible</a>.  When the click-wheel finally broke, it was time to make the switch.  ]]></description>
