    I originally posted this in The Lounge where Pete O'Hanlon (gotta blame somebody) suggested I post it here. Apologies if this is cross posting. Annoying Marketeering Speak Of The Day. Was just reading through some of the release bumph for the Microsoft Solver Foundation Clickety[^] and came across this gem "applied decisioneering" eeeeugh!

      It is cross posting, however in situations like this taking the moral high ground by saying "I couldn't care less" is often desirable.. Regards, --Perspx

        Is there a good view from up there? I started in the moral low ground, quite liked it so stayed there.

            Cross posting normally involves a furrowed brow, maybe a growl and a jutting jaw. Did that apply? If so, it's cross posting.
