    Kinda hard to believe what Microstrategy told me “Sorry Jeff, but we feel you are not the right person to create our marketing campaigns.” Then my peers select me as one of the top 50 experts in the field. Someone sure screwed up - probably me - as they failed to see the obvious - that Jeff was more than qualified to create their campaigns.
