Any news about the open floor plan threat?
I feel like there should be an office scale of terror. shrift's currently at threat level: open floor plan. You could have threat levels for cubicles, office, office with a door, and open floor plan with forced socializing.
According to that obit, he had written a highly regarded book on castles and estates in Central Europe that's still in print.
Should any one of you want to become famous, create a nonprofit and start getting offended.
Dude! I'm halfway there! Actually, I'm probably all the way there. It's just that I get offended most of the time at my own Christian peeps. Which is probably not as profitable, now that I think about it.

I wouldn't want to cramp her style.
Does this mean that liberals are "hard wired" to be different from conservatives? This data alone certainly doesn't support that claim. After all, the go/no go task is a learned activity. The reason that it's hard to inhibit tapping when the "M" appears is that you've learned to tap when you see a letter. You could also learn to tap only when you see an M, and you might be able to learn to be better at this task. Could you learn to be liberal (or conservative)? This study doesn't answer that question, but my suspicion is you could. After all, what's considered liberal in the U.S. is considered conservative in many places. In other places, a U.S. conservative would be considered a flaming liberal.
That sounds more reasonable.
I wonder what my life would be like if I started every working day with a large gin and tonic.
Dana, what's the threat level for office with a door, but also with the daily client files and fax machine in it?
Hmm. What happens if you shut the door? Do people bang on it and ask for their faxes and files? If so, I think that takes you up to "office without a door."
Any news about the open floor plan threat?
Not really. We're moving at noon tomorrow, and they were still cleaning up the space when we went down there earlier this week. I don't think I'll know until we cart our computers down there.

Hey, I've yet to kill even one person! Unless you guys already formed a secret society and you're working hard behind the scenes to keep the Earth a No-Kill Shelter in the face of my desire to exterminate.
OMG, you know who this guy is? It's Toad of Toad Hall!
TOTALLY Mr. Toad!
