Wow, great post. Your question at the end is something I worry about a lot. And it's actually one of the first posts that I disagreed with on Employee Evolution that prompted me to comment, which prompted me to blog, and, well, you know the rest of the story. I think this is one of the most important issues right now... I feel a bit like I'm sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to see how it will all play out. Thanks for writing this.
