<td width="72%">This game helped illustrate the different ways that businessmen 

  from various countries generally operated in coming to decisions. I did 

  fairly well in my understanding of these traits. Thanks to Gabor Por for 

  pointing this out.</td>

  done through this on the first day. So I dropped PHP and went for Java and

  well in XR, it is due to this book.</td>
