“Like many large companies we do not
accept unsolicited ideas. Experience
showed that most ideas had already been
considered by our engineers and that
there can be unintended consequences to
simply accepting these ideas. The time,
cost and risk involved in processing them,
therefore, were not justified by the
benefits gained.” - Boeing
