...and precious few others, insight around these parts seems almost anathema.

- It's as though original thought or ideas that go against the grain are viewed in horror and are immediately locked away in dungeons.

Just like in the old days........

I'm going to take Bucky's advice............

They have things so tied up that incremental change is impossible.
And I suspect there are more and more people who see it now and are waiting for someone to lead them there...not that they need a leader they just don't know the way.

And that is where success is the leader...build it and they will come...and there is a great hunger for it in the world today, as well as great opposition to it by those who love the way things are now and want more of it.

We are cursed by living in interesting times.
