I can't recommend "The Little Red Book Of Selling" by Jeffrey Gitomer enough. I have a copy in my desk right now.

Distance, time, and amount of light. All these things come into effect. The reason why Pluto took so long? Imagine trying to read a magazine with a pair of binoculars vs. somebody taking a picture right next to it. Which do you think will be easier to read?

We've had a pair of binoculars up in space for a while, but it was designed to see way further than Pluto. That is why we have always had blurry images.

Yeah? You don't know if your room is a 10X20? You make it sound like this is some crazy task that requires some special ability.

"Taxes are complicated" translates to: "People don't understand the rules for tax brackets that don't apply to them and think they are getting screwed over. So let's change the tax laws to save those(people or businesses) making more than $100k a year some money while doing nothing to help those making less."
