I didn’t know what I’d find clicking into this, and I’m quite pleased with this thought exercise. I’m taking away the meta lesson which for me is when everyone is saying something can’t work because of x, start asking if there’s another way to look at the problem.

Ok, where were you sitting when you wrote this, was it sunny out, what were you drinking, and how long did it take to write? Are those dumb enough questions?
