Our gut instinct was that we'd LOVE to go a rung up and rattle this guy's cage.  The problem is this project we're working on isn't a very popular one and we're not sure what kind of support we'd get without going to the CEO himself -- which we don't want to do because we're a new department, and we don't want to come off looking like we're "tattling" on a department that's been here forever.  Not a particularly good political move.

Actually, my boss has decided that he's just going to saunter over to this guy's office and just drop in for a "friendly chat" and see if that breaks the ice a bit.  (Also to see if he's really as "busy" as he claims to be -- hee hee!)  Boss is pretty good at just getting along with people, even when he disagrees with them, so we'll see what that does.
