The fact that you are a computer salesman has no predictive power whatever with respect to your technical competence -- that's exactly the problem. The fact that you are good doesn't affect the _fact_ that most computer salesman are technically imbecilic, and pretty carefree about customer service as well. After enough experience, we can generalize _all we want_ -- a handful of counter-examples just shows that we're not talking sterile tautologies. Computer salesmen are not ex car salesmen; they are aspiring car salesmen. -r (Richard Reich as russell@nyu)
