John: Is "consistency in determination" the same as "Dynamic creative philosophy" ? Because honestly? They seem sort of opposite of each other to my understanding.

But me, I always get uncomfortable with anybody criticizing what goes on here. Platt or Arlo. What happens, happens. If you want better dialogue, make some. Griping about the lousy dialogue doesn't really seem that pragmatically useful to me. John in search of pragmatic usefulness.
