OK - lets go at this from two sides.

The Monkey House Strategy
1) Prevention.   Have a reputation for throwing feces at person who come by your office and ask you upsetting questions.
2) If at the meeting, bring an umbrella. When asked, explain it's just that sort of behavior you expect from them and you simply thought it to be prudent.

Either way - no more meeting hassles.

Ravings en masse^
"The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits." - Albert Einstein
"If you are searching for perfection in others, then you seek disappointment. If you are seek perfection in yourself, then you will find failure." - Balboos HaGadol Mar 2010

Straw Poll

Were you affected by the geomagnetic storms this past weekend?
Communication disruptions, electrified pipes, random unexplained blue-screens in Windows - the list of effects is terrifying.
