Got a very nice email over the weekend from Andrew Sullivan (apparently, one of the half dozen people besides my mother and my students who read this thing) pointing out that I had misattributed the "boredom" quote at the top of the page to Dorothy Parker, when it properly belongs to Ellen Parr. As you'll see I've corrected my mistake.

As a collector of quotes over the years, I'm not surprised that I got it wrong, although in this particular case it was pretty quick to discover that everyone else had it right but me. If only all my mistakes were so easy to fix and so politely called to my attention. 

Poetic justice I suppose that someone claiming to know something about knowledge management would get something as simple as an author wrong.

Thank you Andrew and apologies to Ellen Parr.
