I called CompuServe for information on their Executive Information
System. Real nice ad saying how it was set up for the busy executive.

1. The 800 number was always busy (most likely they leave it off
   hook)

2. I called their Ohio number. The person who answered seemed to have
   a real problem understanding what she was there for and seemed to
   be annoyed I dared ask for information.

3. Finally I got some very sketchy information. When I asked if I
   could get more before I sent money she said fine. The information
   would arrive in two weeks. They bulk mail. Apparently I am expected
   to shell out real money but they save pennies.

If that is Executive Service, I must be in another world.
