All,

With some folks retiring and others I know are changing careers (recently 
termed “retooling”), I had some pensive thoughts about losing many folks who 
are experts in the field or those with great wisdom.  So it occurs to me, I 
would like to hear your favorite quotes on Wisdom and Experts.  I’ll prime the 
pump with a few I know.
  a.. Wisdom is the “stuff” you get immediately after you need it most. 
  b.. An expert is one who has already made all of the necessary mistakes. 
  c.. ex·pert/ˈekspərt/  Noun: compound word  “ex + spurt”.  EX meaning “has 
been”, SPURT meaning a “drip under pressure”, therefore a “Has been drip under 
pressure!”
thanks, –doug
