"A very impressive presentation Dr. Barnard,...before you say anything let me introduce myself, my name is Craig Tate and I represent a consortium of companies that markets and distributes the items that you have developed, you might say the business side of science," I say as I ofer a business card. "The rest of these gentlemen, can't come anywhere near what my outfit could pay you for your work and all you need to do is provide the talent. We can give you anything you need in terms of facilities," I say as I hand you a brochure and portfolio. "Since we are breaking for lunch, assuming you have no other plans, I would like to discuss my proposals with you,...Would you do me the honor of joining me?" I said to her trying my best to not show my interest in her as a woman. She was quite attractive and in my mind if it came to it would be a formidable adversary. I hoped that we could come to terms but if not, I would take a great amount of pleasure in other means of persuasion.
