Good Morning CRMers -

As my daugher says -- "Duh, Dad!" I forgot to paste the URL for the
Donald Norman draft into my previous post. So, here it is...

http://cogsci.ucsd.edu/~norman/DNMss/TamingTech.html

Now the question is -- was this error automation induced, or strictly
between the ears. Better go get some training quick. :-) Enjoy!

Best regards,
Neil Krey
