19. I'd be happy to hear a suggestion that had some hope of success.

But I'm not going to waste my energy hoping for things that can't possibly accomplish what they want.

Pipe dream all you want and fall for every desperate "plan" that comes down the pike, but don't expect everyone else to indulge your pie in the sky schemes or to decline to explain why they won't work in the real world.

Do let us all know how that one works out, OK?

By the way.......which part of what I said do you think is untrue?
