Folks,
I've tried. Really I have. But please, can someone point me to the
recent discussion (or a reference of some sort) concerning the fallacy
that one must never ever have more than seven items in a list? Someone
trotted out this chestnut in a meeting today and I promised to dig out
authoritative information to the contrary. Help? Thanks in advance.
