I perceive the study as generational hubris, quite frankly. I'm sick of hearing how bereft we'll be when the Boomers start retiring, and I'm sick of hearing how their NexGen offspring are simply the most brilliant generation ever. Get over yourselves. Retirees might be surprised to find out that when they leave & take all that organizational knowledge with them, that other people will step up and do an adequate or even exceptional job - and not necessarily the same way it's been done before. And yes, I am a GenXer who hates that moniker and thinks that we all have things to offer the profession at different stages of our lives. Dorothea, I’ve got a case of hide chap myself.

I agree that I don't think this project is going anywhere -- but nobody shoulda even THOUGHT of it, is where I'm at.
