Typical Americans

Typical Americans.....


The Difference Between Focusing on the Problems and Focusing on the
Solutions:

When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the
pens wouldn't work at zero gravity. (Ink won't flow down to the writing
surface)

In order to solve this problem, they hired Andersen Consulting (Accenture
today). It took them one decade and 12 million dollars. They developed a pen
that worked at zero gravity, upside down, under water, in practically any
surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C.

The Russians used a pencil...

Sometimes we really focus so hard on the problem that we forg t to think of
a workable solution.

pencil was the first thing that popped into my mind. but i imagine they'll make some money back selling those pens...i know i've been *waiting so long* for a pen that writes under water. once they make the paper i'm set.

NASA wasted 12 million dollars and 10 years just so they could show that they could do it before Russia. That's dumb.
