Harold you're on to something very important in your last comment.

I think it goes beyond the "Selling more stuff" problem. There was a wave of "more is better" things that has had an important impact on us.

If we had a "Less is better" philosophy, and we will in an information overloaded world, we would greatly improve many things. I think that globalization will actually encourage the "less is better" philosophy. And I also suspect that the Network/Packet effect will lead to us thinking in terms of less...

Give me just what I want, when I want it and where I need it.

I also think that teaching and assessment are going to move towards less is better. Less facts to learn, less time in school, less teachers, less everything including hassles.

Hey.. I am also the guy who said the perfect business has 0 clients and 0 employees... so I guess I am starting to get it.
