		<description>Chris, my main point was that too many &quot;consultants&quot; are putting out fluff instead of meat when it comes to the advice they give.

Once again, it goes back to the classic case of the consultant &quot;prolonging the pain&quot; by taking the roundabout way to solve the client&#039;s problem.

But, in some cases, I think it&#039;s actually due to the fact that the &quot;expert&quot; has no idea what they&#039;re talking about. :)</description>

		<description>Well put, Mike.  Most people don&#039;t have time for &quot;theory&quot; these days.  While it is sometimes helpful to understand a particular strategy, what&#039;s more important is a step-by-step approach and an action plan.</description>
