| To honor retiring VP for Production Herb Herbert, the Western
Widget Co. had a retirement dinner at which six of the company executives,
including the VP for Sales, spoke of Herb's achievements. The six
speakers--three men (Barry, Randy, and Stan) and three women (Joan, Kate,
and Wendy)--sat at the head table with Herb and his wife Harriet, with the
eight chairs designated A->H left-to-right facing the table; Herb sat in
chair D and Harriet next to him in E. From the clues below, can you
determine the full name (one surname is Keaton) and job title of each
person honoring Herb, the order 1st-6th in which the six spoke, and
the seating arrangement at the head table?
- The eight were seated at the head table in alternating man-woman order.
The men and women also alternated in the speaking order.
- Stan, who isn't Jenner, sat next to the VP for Technology.
- Singer didn't have one of the end chairs at the head table.

- The executives who spoke 2nd and 3rd had chairs next to each other.
- Wendy sat next to (between) Dorn and the Senior Engineer.

Resources spoke, followed by Barry and then Walker.

company the same year that Herb did.
