Fascinating. I remember this guy from back in the early 2000/2001 time period. He was a consultant brought in to our company to help with some badly designed enterprise solutions deployed by a different consultant. His task was to analyze our environment and then write specific recommendations for improvement. On his way out the door he turns in a 20-plus page document blatantly lifted from the previous consulting gigs he had done — complete with those other company’s names sprinkled throughout the doc! He had only put our company’s name on the first page. The icing on the cake? As you flipped from one page to the next, the font and type size would change. In some cases it would change mid-page. I guess he wasn’t paid enough to “Select All” and then choose a consistent font and type size for the entire document. And you can forget “global search and replace”.

Hi,

This is for readers of this post. I would not want you (the readers) wondering why I didnt respond to this post. Well; I spoke to “Raven” (guess I gotto use his pen name instead of his real name here) in person, and he does have my answers. I’d prefer keeping it that way and not make myself available as a “tool” for blatant accusations.

i’ve been through this once, but not again ;-(
