Dear all, a story from a consultant’s diary. For 16 years my clients were fine with TCs (phone) and e-mails. Starting in March due to the COVID-19 crisis, many had to work from home and discovered a new toy: Video conferences! Skype, Zoom, Webex, M$ Teams boomed. In the beginning I had funny conversations like this one: »We cannot see you!« maps suggests this route: THX, well done.

Hi Helmut, Why you waited for so long? So... Are you going to have a clean cut look from now on? No More Highlander hair style? J |

Hi John, ❝ Why you waited for so long? The webcam was manufactured in 苏州 and Amazon’s distribution center in Piacenza is located in Italy’s Emilia-Romagna. Hit by COVID-19. Lockdowns, high demand, Waiting didn’t bother me (I have a cam on my notebook though use it only to connect with friends) but the crazy delivery route. Never heard of the TSP? 2.2× as much CO2 released than via the direct route. ❝ Are you going to have a clean cut look from now on? No More Highlander hair style? Why should I? Everyone knows that I’m just a belated hippie and won’t go back to trying to look like Michael Douglas in the late 1970s. OK, a three-day beard nowadays only. — Dif-tor heh smusma 🖖🏼 Довге життя Україна!
