Exposing the Sins of Memory.I enjoyed Col, Haraburda's article "The 'Seven Sins of Memory'" in the January January: see month. - February issue very much. What an important topic, but this is the first article I can recall ever reading on it. Among the many good points the author made touched upon one of my most serious concerns: a growing lack of discipline in summarizing and issuing minutes at the end of meetings. To have people walk away from a meeting with differing recollections of what happened, what was said, and what was decided can be disastrous for a project. I realize people are very busy, but--as Haraburda points out, it's a very bad idea to skip this critical activity. Thanks to Col. Haraburda for sharing this important facet facet /fac·et/ (fas´it) a small plane surface on a hard body, as on a bone. fac·et n. 1.
