The Elio Engine

[Mike W]

So, we are comparing a rather complex business launching to a 5 year old child? A 5 year old (assuming that it is yours) is easily kept track of and corraled. Ok, now let's try to do that with a business launch from scratch. Can all aspects be kept under complete control? Can all people and backers be forced to follow your script? Can all possible permutations of what will happen down the road (even the next day) be known? Let's see, the answers to all the above are, um, no. So if you can make your 5 year old behave all the time like you want you are a genius and should write a book. If you can control a business from scratch, start one.

Why bother responding- he's doing it to pull-your chain

So, saying everything is right on track up until days before it suddenly isn't doesn't count as a lie? Lies of omission of the truth are just as bad as lies of commission.

Come on. Would you accept that from your 5 year old child?

It IS actually possible they DIDN'T know till the last minute, isn't it? If you are late to work because of a huge accident, should your boss be upset that you didn't know about it? I think not.

Sure the boss would be upset if you were late most everyday. Elio has a problem showing up .

But they didn't specify 'whose' spouse. [looks to make sure the wife is still reading her book]

careful big guy, no mention of spouse(s) in the announcement, in this day and age there are many combinations (including reference to horses oops no way, not enough room, but a sweet looking sheep well..........
