		<description>Dear Brian,

You are spot on. Unless a communications plan has a Purpose, the parts will not fit together. In our days, people dive into &quot; how &quot; questions before thinking about &quot; why &quot;. Suffice it to add, if one does not know &quot; why &quot;, every &quot;how&quot; can be a subject for discussion.
