I just get on and try to just get it done. I've finally gotten to do some Ontology for Records Management at the ISO Working Group level, by stealth and 10 years worth of persistence.

The barrier is no longer the approach, artefacts, or the technical tools and capabilities. It's an intransigent profession, that refuses to leave the paper paradigm mindset behind, and fights against what they (wrongly) perceive as my intolerable New-fangled impudence and disruption. Im actually trying to save them from extinction.

It's my peers that insist on fighting over the chairs on the deck of the Titanic, as I wave from the lifeboat. If you have any ideas on a way forward I'm all ears!

[puts pragmatist hat on] Some of this really resonates Stephen and I agree with your call for international consistency (ISO). How can we get that idea off the ground?
