>but I'm not holding my breath.

Hahahaha...no, please don't hold your breath! But it's good to see there is 
at least some mention of the I, in conjunction with the T. I come from a 
1960s/70s educated view that 'technology' isn't just hardware, either, but 
also procedures, methodology, systems design, etc. It's as important, if 
not most important, to define the problem or goal clearly, define the 
circumstances including the inputs and resources, identify what options are 
available for solving the problem or achieve the goal, measurable 
indicators of success, THEN come up with the processes and nuts and bolts 
to make it happen.

What astonishes me is the limited attention paid to the whole, and the huge 
attention paid to the subcomponents.
