We needed another laugh.
Jeff Jones' "report" is total nonsense. As we speak it is being sent to the BS-logic shredder of the Internet and will come out the other end in its true form, lies. But we may soon expect an in-depth analysis by Rob Enderle, Michael Gartenberg and Randall Kennedy. They will come to the defense of Jeff Jones and their analysis will show solid methods as work. The only difference between this report and their everyday work is that they get paid before they write it, not after.
