| Andrew: | It's about effectivity! If you run to school you get to sleep more... Sleep is the most important thing in life. |

| ndobbs: | is "effectivity" swedish? |

| BorisGr: | I think he meant "efficiousness". |

| Andrew: | Effectivity is english: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/effectivity
Admittedly, maybe it was only accepted into English recently from management-speak And ok... maybe I skipped a sentence or two in the logic. I am only effective working/training/in life in general having had a decent amount of sleep. Thus more sleep improves my effectivity. And efficiousness is not a word... but efficaciousness is... Anyway, the point of attackpoint is to improve the effectivity of our training, not to improve our english... |

| Suzanne: | hmmm... I thought the point of attackpoint was to give us something to do after checking e-mail and before
a. working on a master's thesis/becoming a Ph.D student b. writing warm-fuzzies about swamps c. writing the paper for a "literature project" that was sort-of due (is anything really 'due') more than a month ago (me) And most importantly, to give each other a hard time even when on the other side of an ocean. um... I mean encourage good training. |

| ndobbs: | why "effectivity" when you have "efficacy"? I assumed you had intended efficiency, but fair enough. I'm just being officious. And Zan's right about the attackpoing point, although I'm not sure what writing warm-fuzzies about swamps entails, and she's missing d, e and f... like preparing a seminar for Monday, writing a couple of papers which should have been finished long ago but don't have an effective offical deadline, so keep getting postponed, preparing a mini-course I have to give in Chile, doing some research... and of course going training!! |
