Replying to LO7501 --

I would rather be measured by the number of times I am invited back again
to work on new problems. Unless you are an internal consultant its kind of
difficult to know how many times you haven't been asked back to work on
something thats been fixed. If that does happen perhaps you ought to be
fired.
