maybe not every one out of five, but we've certainly discussed some episodes like that. but i don't want people to think the work is built merely on tearing down the left: it is merely saying what it isn't, in our analysis. that is step one of any positive project.

this is not, shall we say, a glamorous or exciting position to occupy nowadays, but the only projects i've ever seen succeed have occurred on a small scale.
