I hope this subtle point comes across: I don't blame customers who do this or think they are in some way losers. It's just that upfront CAE takes a little more attention than people might expect in the beginning. Since the target audience has so many diverse responsibilities on their plates, it's totally understandable that they'd lose track of the benefit and skills for upfront CAE if they don't get a chance to use it on something real IMMEDIATELY following training. Thanks guys. I hope this subtle point comes across: I don’t blame customers who do this or think they are in some way losers.

I had an interesting discussion along the same lines. We can make the software super simple, easy to identify the ROI, but if the guy just doesn't get it, they will fail. agree with bob, dude.

"Field of Dreams" did a lot of damage with that "if you build it they will come" line! Great use of the cartoon to emphasize your point.
