Dear Readers:As you may recall, I was making a point yesterday regarding receiving value in exchange for value. Also, as is my custom, I was cynically taking a "wait and see" approach, almost anticipating (dare I say "hoping"?) that my quarry of the day, Mr. John DiPrete (a fellow Braintenance enthusiast) would reject my request to have my link, http://braintenance.blogspot.com/, posted on his site.
After reading John's response this morning, it is truly a sad day for cynics, skeptics and negativists. He not only offered reciprocity (which is the key to all commerce), but proposed a tagline to accompany my link, to be placed on his website. Today, the U.S. government reports the jobless rate up to over 7.6% -- despite this tragic news, I have gained 1) a new friend, and 2) a very encouraging new perspective...that by working cooperatively and with some old-school kindness, we can entrepreneuially muscle our way out of any recession. Adam J. Kovitz may be on to something revolutionary with his whole RELATIONSHIP CAPITAL idea. Thank you, Adam.
John's letter follows:

Dear Friends - In brief and in sum, this is a sample of the Power of Relationship Capital. It is fact, not mere theory.
Faithfully,
Douglas Castle
