[Ari Feldman <outdoorminer2002@xxxxxxxxx>]

Flipping through one of my old issues of the "Silicon Alley
Distorter"..er..I mean "Silicon Alley Reporter" magazine, Mr.
Dachis was profiled as going to SUNY Purchase for a degree in
creative dance or something like that. Sure, that makes him
REALLY qualified to run an Internet company AND determine who
counts in a company.

I never had the (dis)pleasure for working for Razorfish but they
were notorious for creating messy, problematic sites. I know,
because I had to clean up one of their messes back in 1996.
Guess he didn't hire enough "Tool Monkeys" to do the job.
