Reminds me of the joke about the difference between a specialist and a generalist:
A specialist knows more and more about less and less until finally he knows everything about nothing.
A generalist knows less and less about more and more until finally he knows nothing about everything.
Dan,
I like that. And both the specialist and the generalist can find a career in management consulting!
