Russell Thinks I am Clueless, Not Cluetrained

Now Russell Beattie thinks I am polluting the blogosphere and he points out some of my missteps. OK, I'll own those and I won't hide from them. You know what - if you can't learn from the conversation, then you're toast. It doesn't matter who you are. Bettter to take risks and learn from them than not to have taken any at all. Thanks Russ. Seriously.
