Which VANS do I love? Sterling is THE BEST. Costs a
little more but worth it. Problem free. Almost never
down (and when down its on Sunday for scheduled
maintenances). Great customer service. And a great
self-service website where you can see what documents
have been sent and received, get mailbag numbers, and
reload documents if needed.

Which Vans should hang it up? Well, everybody who has
been on this list for some time knows my unequivocal
answer on this one. GXS is the one that I really
hate.
GXS really stinks.

<<We are at such a point in mankind's evolution where changed conditions
invalidate all our policies that have been so successful even in the recent
past, and that presumably have constituted the ideal response to a presumably
unchanging and unchangeable human condition. No wonder we are stupefied and
confused-but our mistake is the same which many cultures have made before us,
namely to force a rigid model upon a fluid reality.
