Replying to LO22026 --

Yes, as you say, I think my friend believed ...

That's a wonderful insight.

I'm not quite as sure about your next speculation:

>your friend may have had a high regard for the people who worked in the

I think he always has great respect for the fact that people act on what
THEY believe to be the case. So it is vital to find out what they
believe, what they perceive, and what interpretations they are making if
we want to find out why things happen as they do.
