Or maybe he doesn't. Business people think *lots* of things about  
customers that aren't true. The weird thing is that business execs who  
wouldn't imagine they have the skills to design their own logos instead  
of getting a graphic designer's advice or to write their own advertising  
copy instead of getting an advertising firm to create their campaigns or  
to decorate their own office buildings instead of hiring an interior  
design consultant, will see things like Flash and go "ooh, pretty" and  
assume that they know better than their web consultant about how the  
advantages will trade off against the disadvantages.
