Yeah, well remember I started the post out with not being able to figure out how to "quote" either? . . .

I'm sorry, Cherie but I can't get past this! Are you exaggerating here? Even if we whittle it down to 6 productive hours per person, per day, that's still 96 hours with no results! My team would have been fired by the end of the first day!

Nope, not exaggerating at all.

It was an implementation project that was ongoing for one year. We were implementing a software and operational process into a new country, which functioned on an entirely different basis then the country we bought it from. The problems were complex.

Many, many days were spent brain-storming, which is usually the case in this type of project. The "doing" is easy, the "thinking" is not . . .
