As are all things which I have encountered in the last 56 years. My
modus operandi, then, is to assume that perfection, while, perhaps,
desirable, is unattainable. Hence, I tend to the practical, a blend of
"what if," and "if only if." And then I choose (or punt, whichever suits
the cause) because, to do otherwise, specifies inertia. And that is, to
me, anathema.
