Loc: Dallas, TX, USA The comments in the weekly roundup reminded me of this true story. About 12-15 years ago, a fellow I worked with, Mike, was in charge of putting together a proposal for a prospective client. The project team included Carl, a consultant from another office. As it was getting down to the wire Mike began to wonder why he hadn't received a package of material from Carl for the proposal. Carl said it had been e-mailed through the company's system. Mike said he had never received it. There followed two hours of panic, with the denouement being the discovery that the company's spam/porn filters had quarantined the document, because Carl had said in his bio that he had graduated magna cum laude.
