Ben,
I called CBM to inquire about MindMovies, not Leary specifically. As I
mentioned in a previous message (to someone else, I believe), the software
folks were very helpful.
But, to your comment about it being a stupid, time wasting question – that may
be true, in their eyes. However, they never found out what the question was,
because the "appropriate people" couldn`t be reached for comment. It's
happened before. That in itself isn't necessarily a problem nor does it
indicate that CBM won't answer questions – only that slow – or no – response
makes it difficult to report the companies plans, reactions etc.
One final "however" and I'll drop the subject: Those who complain about fair
and accurate coverage shouldn't complain too loudly when the stories see print
without offsetting comments by a company official. If the company doesn't
comment, then there are no company comments. What CBM or any other organization
sees as a dumb questions, may not seem that way to customers or other concerned
folks.
