It's got to be a team thang, with good leadership (i.e. those able to get 

the best out of their people, not dictators)


I often laugh at, in this day and age, job ads that ask for excellence with 

all of C++, Perl, HTML, ASP, Java, Director, Photoshop, Flash, Illustrator 

and handy with a pen and paper.


I wonder if it affects other industries? Wanted - experienced heart surgeon 

to come and be an architect on a new hospital plan, as well as doing a bit 

of heart surgery on the side.
