Tony- I started to say that list is outstanding but the more I read the closer they started to hit home!! Then I started reading them to my wife and she said over and over "yep, yep, yep..." She also said "I don't see why those are funny, I have to live with them everyday!!!". :laugh:

I think planning your family vacation on a Gantt chart finally put me over the top! I used to teach Gantt and CPM scheduling! OMG, I'm such a GEEK!!!!

Well done mate! The best laugh I've had in a awhile!! Thanks!! :cheer:

Tovo, this is really funny, a lot of them could be for most guys without being engineer.

Chas, it was the contribution to 'pure evil' of Henry Gantt. It is a bar chart of project completion data. As I said, PURE EVIL! :ohmy:

Nope Chas, I'm not taking the bait and explaining Gannt charts to the world! Suffice it say they are a simplistic way to look at a project schedule and are still used today to define WBS (work breakdown structures, like building a guitar). Gannt is not as powerful as CPM especially after we went from mode-to-mode critical path scheduling to precendent based, time-arrow diagramming with resource allocation and levelling.

There, that should be geeky enough for a guitar forum!! Whew, that got my foil hat crackling!! ROFLMAO!! :laugh:
