Damn willies I tell you.
Guido will always be right to a following that will work to find
the meaning that makes him right.
Difficult *not* to be able to do that.
Probably a known phenom.
A scary thing to watch - as in any phenom watched
from the outside with the participants having
a lowered self-awareness.
And not a criticism of Guido himself.
Of which I *do* have a few.
