Yes, the problem is that you think you are going to 'get it right' if
you continue to work on it. I favor the path suggested by Antone in
his excellent thread 'I wanna go home'.[0] I don't agree with all of
the resolutions, but they're not so bad, and they could be
accomplished quickly. Absurd rehashing of dates and id arguments are
not going to be resolved this year.
