Rarebird,

You are doing a disservice to the readers of this thread
in the manner that you have conducted your replies to
Richard lately.

The following answers that you respond with to explain
an incorrect or confused state of awareness in Richard
is great for students taking advanced class Life 505,
but here on this thread most folks want to read replies
that self contain start to finish the question, reasoning
and conclusion without any lingering afterthoughts of the
sort of "What the heck did he/she say?."

Except for one or two that occasionally visit this thread
for the sole purpose to bash you since you threaten them,
all others respect your ability to incorporate through
understanding those aspects of life that are not accessible
to most and require the degree of learning you have obtained
in your Doctor of Philosophy issuance. Now add to that condition
an ability to incorporate Common Sense and you have a unique
person
that carries the label rarebird that indicates a combination
of two or more desirable traits not usually existing together
as one has a tendency to dominate and not allow growth in other areas.

Examples of answers that sound simple but are too complex.

Change is the Reality
Get in Touch with Reality
The World is much more complex than you think.

The following short story is untrue
and is not accurate for this post,
but it can be viewed as a starting point
that hopefully will become an ending point
for the battle in words between you and Richard
so that a more of a union can be highlighted
so that readers here can obtain what you both
have to offer.

Once upon a time
at the US Military Academy
at West Point
two men,
rarebird and longone
shared a room
and together started classes.

The rarebird saw a wealth of knowledge in the textbooks,
while longone saw a wealth of knowledge outside the books.

Rarebird would spend his time in the library reading,
while longone spent his time studing models of battle
of wars, and used those objects to represent "what if."

Eventually years passed and each became a general,
and it was in the Great War of II.5 that each held
command, with rarebird stationed in the rear as a
strategist and longone in the war zone as a line
commander.

Yes, rarebird would supply tactics to longone,
and longone with reply back with balony.

Conflict.

Rarebird knew what was the correct way,
but longone was actually there each day
looking at the carnage in person real time
on the battle fields, while rarebird read
the reports and seperated this element out
as having no use to decide what to do next.
But longone was horrified with what he saw
and wanted to allocate resources to prevent
any more occurance of it. Longone was in
a short term mode, as in now, while rarebird
saw events to lead to a conclusion down the
road to prepare for the next great war.

Both are needed, but before their efforts can
be combined and used as two parts needed for
a complete whole, they have to communicate
rather than ......
