JT, thanks. And I appreciate being reminded about citations. I generally try to do a good job with that, but when I get rushed I can forget. Original work is original work and should be cited. No harm, no foul there.

Philip, I'll have to look into that more. A taxi meter...great one. That's real money piling up. Wow...super idea.

Great post.

I'm curious if there's any documented research on organizations that swear by "stand-up meetings only". I can imagine the time savings would be huge.

People just don't think about the money they're burning through when they waste time in meetings. Maybe a visible taximeter would help. :)
