Speedy If it doesn't it doesn't and we are where we are, Labour got no poll bounce from their conference certainly. However, if this Tory bounce is confirmed off the back of Cameron's speech a key moment in the campaign will have been reached
Quite right. Email has become tyrannical - and hugely wasteful. The studies you refer to show it takes 30 seconds just to scan each mail and see if it is relevant to oneself. Most aren't, and others have simply perished or been dealt with by the time we get to them. Given the volume of mail these days, many workers are spending their time literally reading about something that is in no way of use to their job.
In a similar vein, Daimler now have a policy where people cannot receive emails when on holiday. They found workers were spending hours on their return from a break reading piles of mail that has long since perished when they would have been better just getting on with their work.
Speedy, it wouldn't have to be jargon - initial response from FAQ, too low match responder encouraged to add to FAQ, reduce work in the future. The important thing is always to give a response. Public library catalogues do this - no matches found is useless to the searcher - something more or less apposite though less accurate is better.
FalseFlagSoutham Indeed, but it was after Bush Snr's speech that crossover occurred, the Horton ads just cemented his lead. Dukakis also made a gaffe in the debates when he refused to show any emotion when asked how he would react if his wife had been murdered in a question on the death penalty, clip here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF9gSyku-fc
I think his answer was great! But yeah, probably not a vote-winner, sadly.
Speedy Content of Buchanan's speech was nuts, lambasting gays, feminists and liberals, but he delivered it brilliantly, in my view one of the best ever convention speeches

It's good to hear that at least for one post, the exorcism worked.
Speedy - could sell consultancy to set the FAQ and response system up. Let the email target respond but escalate the conversation to sales manager if the information analysis indicates real interest.
Speedy There was only a handful in Luntz's focus group too, and I think the sample was more than 6, but all the voters seemed pretty average and fairly apolitical except for 1 LD and a cross section of Labour, Tory and UKIP voters, it may be small but nonetheless no reason to suggest the sample wrong
The reason the sample is atypical is that they've been watching the speech and are asked to react to it - most people will only see a snippet, if that. I think it will have an impact too, but Speedy's advice to wait to Monday makes sense.
Speedy - could do some nice management graphs - what are people asking about? what are the most common fault reports?
Well my problem is when you have to many things on a graph I have trouble to distinguish the different bits, sometimes it's so bad they look like colorful spaghetti.

It was said to have won the votes of a thousand lawyers ...
Is it just me, or did Lord Ashcroft's poll earlier in the week actually give a Tory lead of 1% (32 v. 31) as opposed to the published tied vote (32 each for Lab and Con)?

Speedy - yes but MANAGEMENT graphs, doesn't really matter, a nice cluster graph... could be a web service - a few pounds a year - on Azure, the quantity makes it right. The web service could remember the email sender, what they were looking for - sell the data on very quietly (I know you won't like that - but the emailer might).

They can see, but only superficially, it works best if they don't look too closely.
(you are aware that the last post was ironic?)

Plato is a card carrying conservative now, her footloose and fancy free days are over.
Damages the brands though.
Sorry Speedy, I had to check, sometimes people take everything way too seriously.
... and lost those of a million factory workers.

weighted sample without adjusting for don't know/refusers: 501
Lab 159 (32%)
Con 158 (32%)
UKIP 87 (17%)
LD 38 (8%)
assuming 50% of 2010 don't know/refusers are added "back" to their party
159+12 = 171 Lab
158+18 = 176 Con
87 = UKIP
38+12 = 50 LD
New weighted sample adjusting for DK/ref = 543
New percentages:
Con 32%
Lab 31%
UKIP 16%
LD 9%

Or Ed Miliband in his.
Neither did Maria Miller mention child abuse in 2012 when the Savile scandal broke.
Wards of the state don't matter much to these filth. It would never happen to their kids, of course.
Despicable rotten scum, the lot of them.
And on that rather amusing note, goodnight!
I wouldn't say that I subscribe to the views in here, but I think it's funny. And most skillfully done. Enjoy!
