STANDARDS

[demingtw <demingtw@ms17.hinet.net>]

Dear Denizens,

I think the  following conclusion remark of Simson's article is an
example of the the advice given in Out of the Crisis. List for your
reference.

>>...The United States has let phone companies compete not just for
customers, but in technology and standards. Alas, that competition has
created a cacophony of mostly incompatible and underused systems. Maybe
thatˇ¦s a message that our policymakers should heed.

---Message in a Bottleneck
Why doesnˇ¦t the U.S. appreciate wireless text messaging? It has no
standards.
