As a young designer explained to me bluntly: "Everyone upstairs is dumb," referring to the floor above the engineering lair at the 156 University office where customer support, administrators and salespeople sat.

Thus proving that all that stands between your average rich person and a career in Bond villainy is access to an extinct volcano.
