Learning how to mine the diamonds out of the coal is definitely a skill that is needed. Yet still not taught in school, strangely .... Someone once said that anyone can buy a piano, but that doesn't mean that everyone can play it. Being able to pick out the nuggest of info. from the onslaught and then being able to use them wisely is what turns a collection of notes into a song. Great analogy to surfing, Charles!

One way I establish a value system is by posting less. I publish once a week. I understand that time is valuable - certainly mine is valuable - and according to a report highlighted by Advertising Age, people are spending less time on line.

Your advice is appreciated ... though you may not receive a lot of comments (since you are not raising points to debate, rather providing kernels of insight to chew on). I often think of you when (if I take the time) to cross out of bunch of "that"s Mahalo and aloha, Margaret Wille Thanks Charles for all your great advice …. and great reading.
