I agree with you, and I suspect that the many people I know in personnel,
HR, or under any other name probably pretty much ignore any changes in
nomenclature.

But, one thing I have noticed on this list is a very strong tendency to
wax philisophical to a degree I haven't encountered since I was in
university. At times, I have smacked myself upside the head wondering at
some of the conversations, but assume that I am under-educated in LO's and
that they are of some significance, out there beyond the list.

Perhaps someone can lend a hand. Is this level of analysis and abstract
discussion typical (or somehow required) due to the nature of LO's? Or is
it that the topic attracts people with this particular bent?
