"Its possible" is the intriging thing. It is like a shiny
glimmering toy in the distance... hints and keywords cannot help
me because I am quite unable to follow hints and keywords
intelligently. I do best when someone behind me has a gun to my
head and says, "Do this punk" and I do something really
idiotically simple and he says, relaxing the trigger finger
briefly, "And now this..." etc.
