uhm, no. the harsher the situation the higher the likelihood that
they try anything. someone who's life is at risk has an easy time
to take risks - but you are not talking about convincing people
in harsh situations but about convincing wellfed organisation
guys who are afraid of spending money unwisely. _there_ you need
figures alright.
again i want to turn attention to cuba and vietnam (vietnam is
onl yhearsay to me, cuba too but more and more solid) - certainly
people in harsh situations.
