Ok David
  When playing football or any other game you are trying to carry the ball into 
my end zone to score.  I block you as best i can but fail and you blow past me 
and into the end zone.

Technically i was overwhelmed but my feelings have not changed. In a couple of 
minutes we will both be back in the game and pushing the same postulates with 
the same energy.

However occasionally i get so crushed by the repeated failure to stop you from 
getting into the end zone that i decide that it is hopeless. I can never again 
play this game as i am a failure as a blocker and will always lose.

This last situation is what Dennis means.  It only occurs when i am totally 
crushed into apathy at failure to block the opponents postulate and feel that i 
can never succeed in that game again.  I agree with his pan-determined 
postulate that he will carry the ball into the end zone every time he tries.

Your text in the chart is correct.

Sincerely
Pete McLaughlin
