		 I disgree, while a marketing rep at a show should
		 be familiar with his products and software so that
		 he can effectively discuss his products. That does
		 not mean he is going to be aware of every published
		 report on his product. He should be knowledgable
		 enough on his products to defend them from perhaps
		 less then great reviews or be able to admit that
		 in comparison to other products in that category
		 they have room for improvement that they are looking
		 into.
