Mitsi - Just wanted to give you an update on how the interviews are going so far from our perspective. Set and setting - very important psychological concepts of which we are all aware. So far we have done interviews in four different offices at MSA, finding ourselves moved from room to room in the course of the day for no particular reason.
Furnishings therefore fit in poorly if at all.
After considering the problem at some length and in the light of our own exquisite sensitivity to the environmental disequilibrium, we conclude that the overwhelming preponderance of Sting art in your rooms must be offset by some appropriate countervaling influence if the imbalance is to be corrected. We have determined that the appropriate antidote would consist of comparable wall hangings featuring the artist Billy Joel. Now that we are moving into the phone interviews with European journalists, we find ourselves confronting an entirely different range of difficulties. Given the limited time and energy available for problem solving at this point we find ourselves drawn to the notion of some global solution that will correct most if not all of the annoyances with one simple precaution. Hours later some other Unidentified MSA Person asks us if we want drinks - later those drinks are brought in by some else altogether.
