Well, that is the time to remember what Sully (pilot of Flt. 1459)said this morning:

For 42 years of flying I had been making small deposits of knowledge and on that one day I had enough saved up to make a large withdrawal when needed.

Earlier you had questioned what to do when faced with 100 hungry, cold souls. Well, I for one would take them in... Feed them and get them warm and then tell them if that if they were willing to help, there was the opportunity for more food and shelter, but we all had to work for it. (Notice I fed and warmed them first so they wouldn’t be so irrational)

BUT keep in mind, I have 3 very good friends who are my enforcers - Mr. Colt, and Msrs. Smith & Wesson. And they are very persuasive. When needed, they have the ability to reach out and touch someone.

For now, we need to cultivate in others the knowledge accounts and the stockpiles so that they can do the same and then I will only have to take in 98, then 96 and so on till we approach equilibrium - we have a lot of work to do. (grin)

He is a wise man and so very right.

We do need to learn and teach.

Your post was a good one.
