cyanoacry just learned another viewpoint. If you work in a heavily political environment, a process heavy environment, or one in which the "calculations" are not appreciated, then yes, your viewpoint would be to put down the keyboard/slide rule and just communicate. In other environments, actual working results can silence people that are trying to "communicate" their way to success.

It's really something that we should put a greater effort into teaching...
