Dick Staub: "When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it. A.A. Milne Winnie the Pooh November 13th, 2007"

I just love this quote from the Pooh Bear.

There's a lot of truth in this statement by Winnie. That is why the right groups make the best decisions. Notice the word right there...
