Re: What I want to say....

Let 'em Google me. I've done it. I'm an assistant basketball coach on the
east coast, a technology writer for publications, a book author, and a
constructor of Amazon.com book lists (only the latter hit is really me).

I *am* confrontational; the result isn't always a warm fuzzy feeling in
everyone's hearts, but it does result in a better product for users. (And
I'm not a simpering wimp who meekly follows orders; most successful CEOs
don't surround themselves with yes-people anyway.) The goal isn't to make
co-workers feel good. The goal is to make a better product that will sell
better, cost less to suport, and increase company profits and success.
