    Best wishes, and please let us know more about what you are offering
    (probably available on your Web site, but a two- or three-line summary
    would be much more appreciated).

    Thank you: Here is a copy:
    Innovation as a result of problem definition and solving has been under
    research at many places in the world. Germany (East and West) and Russia
    were especially effective in research. Nevertheless, many of their
    findings were too theoretical in their approach. A different way was
    through research done in the psychological field. The missing link of
    practice - especially in the industrial and corporate world tended to
    result in a form of creativity which produced lots of answers,
    unfortunately too often of no real value.

    The purpose of these three *.htm pages is to allow readers of MG-ED-DV and
    MINT lists to take a glance at just one example taken from the Creative
    Morphological Approach. This example shows - if you think it through
    carefully - how a result is found without fail. It is impossible not
    finding the solution. A real world example is also shown, using the same
    method. This also shows that solutions can employ the "butterfly effect".
    This means that a small change at some place can have an extreme change at
    a different place.
