Exactly Ron, I mean exactly spot on ... Which is why my own approach (preferred approach, with the odd exception anyway) is subtle intellectual subversion - change the game, seed the memes - rather than attacking conflict head-on (but someone has to do that too - an enlightened intellectual collaboration on a broad front - some intellectuals do have to "get their hands dirty" - but we can't all "fight in the trenches"). I'm deadly serious.
(And - psssst - that's not a secret - it's overt subversion. Joining the dots by knitting fog using the eternal golden braid - mixed-metaphorical drivel, which I'll need to decode one day.)
