No, No, No, this is absolutely not the approach to take. This silly
approach
will absolutely not work to our benefit. This is completely
convoluted and
very stupid logic to want to start "beating" people once they don't
do what
you want. Remember, we need something from them, and they need
nothing from
us, so it behooves us to kindly, very kindly request an ear for a
few
minutes in order to explain our plight. You must exhaust all
resources
before getting aggressive. What if after a kind request the other
party
agrees and begins to help? then all is well and we benefit
immensely. On the
other hand, what if you start doing stupid things such as getting
very
aggressive and threatening at the offset then demand help? The other
party
will not only not want to help you, but they will have a very
incorrect view
of you and who you represent. Yes, the squeaky gear might get the
oil, but
we're not talking mechanics here, we're talking human interactions.

Matthew
