Actually, the only thing that would tick me off is if all you, I and the
rest of us manage to do is "hope". If you are right that we need it
that quickly then it is time to roll up our sleeves and do the work.
Yes? Doing is fine, but you had best lay out your general plan, goals
and objectives instead of everyone going off in all directions. Yes?
You keep talking about goals and subgoals. So why not design those for
this project itself and start tracking where the process is along the
way?
