On the surface, it seems simple, but achieving my desires is like navigating iceberg-laden waters. Last time, I basically tried to present a 1000-word view of where I think we stand. This time around, I have tried to present a 1000-word view of where I stand in relation to where we stand and to where I think we should stand. From this point on, I hope to provide a series of ideas and questions designed to help us stand somewhere closer to where I think we should stand. And since I doubt if my vision is very close to that of anyone else, I would prefer this to be a forum rather than a soapbox.
