Ed,
Following the Clean Slate post, you are now ready for the ashcan of history
according to Darwin since all worthwhile thoughts are constructed by
adolescent physicists and team learning is an "impossible dream" in history.
And the 70 year old Serkin was no match for a high school pianist. Climb
the mountains that you can climb when you can climb them. There are four
Mountains and the young cannot climb the fourth before they are old and many
will never reach it as Serkin and Horowitz did. According to Darwin there
is only one and it is inhabited by Wolverines, Racists and other such devil
dogs.
