If in a group, it takes one to convince others that the opinion is worth something. It takes the RIGHT person that everyone will listen to. I tried to convince a group of people, in an exercise, to make the circle smaller, my opinion was wortheless until the right person came along and everyone listened to him. WE made the circle smaller and WE won. Imagine!!
In school, when I give a suggestion on how to write better, it takes the right student or teacher to approve of a suggestion. I\'ve decided to no longer share--the suggestions that leads to faster writing. After all, that\'s what our goal is--to write faster and efficient--Time IS money!! They approved of one that I gave but it\'s kept quiet because I\'m not the pet. THE TEACHERS say, We know how to write that one, don\'t we. When a pet gives a good suggestion, it\'s repeated many times over, \"so and so\" gave that one, she\'s gone but it\'s a good one.\" So the pets use it because the teacher approved of what THEE pet gave, many years ago!!
Didn\'t you use this one before? Oh well, it\'s still a good one!

True. Like the world being flat. So many others.

Neat words to ponder indeed. If one can be openminded enough I think almost every opinion is worth taking note of.
