Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

based Minorplanet is making an official approach to the Cambridge Dictionary to ask them to

recognisethe word 'Telematics'. Reading between the lines, Minorplanet seems less fulfilled by being a world leader in a subject that doesn't exist in the dictionary. Here at CM we're constantly struggling with industry terms—and other expressions—which don't appear in the dictionary. For starters, what about a definition of "logistics"? We want one short, sharp (and preferably English)

sentence, that doesn't include marketing speak like "shared user values; full chant care; optimised business solutions"; or "full, one-stop-shop, provision."

CMwill give a prize of a bottle of Champagne to the best and most succinct (not to say the most believable) answer.

PS: "Road Haulage with a bit of warehousing thrown in for good measure" is not acceptable....(even if a is highly accurate)—Ed.
