In them days I was carrying around a huge file of overheads.  However, I did use 
computers for some of the presentations (remember the old LCD panels you put 
on top of overhead projectors?), and, as a matter of course, carried an AV with me 
that I used to scan the machine while I was setting up everything else.

Funny, with all the advanced tech these days, it still seems to take about the same 
time to get all set up ...

So, just to circle back, if we roll out a zero-tolerance approach
to cliches and empty buzzwords, we can take our dialogue to the
next level. At the end of the day, this new paradigm would
benefit all stakeholders and make business communication more
user-friendly. So, could I get buy-in for you to make this one of
your action items? Please ramp up a new best practice and make it
mission critical to rightsize your use of stale terminology.
Thanks in advance for your help.     - Mark Sutcliffe, Sun, 20060905
