Dad was always a lateral thinker. Also, if something could be said in ten words, he wouldn't waste twenty. Okay, so that didn't rub off on the family journalist, as you can see at Authorblog, where Dave often gets a bit wordy-nerdy. Dad would always caution us against ``unproductive activity'' (management training manuals, Chapter One). When he was Traffic Manager of the Calcutta Port Commissioners, he hated long meetings. Because his office was often the venue for the more high-powered conferences, he developed a novel way to keep them mercifully short.
You see, back in the days before central air-conditioning, only bosses had individual a/c units in their offices. So about ten minutes before the others were scheduled to walk in, Dad would switch off his a/c. Worked every time. In the tropical heat, everyone would stick to the agenda and keep it really short.

I think David uses words wonderfully, though I must give credit to the genious of Father McMahon.
Pssst! What's David's middle name? He said we couldn't ask his wife... said nothing about asking you. (wink)
I've just discovered or should l say uncovered this Clan McMahon blog from David's authorblog..
It has a similar edginess and great images...does it run in the family!
And that is why, I would guess, he was the boss...the ability to control those within his environment...pleased to meet the brother of David...he's a very nice bloke as I'm sure you are.
