In 1966 or 67 Andy Palm, Mike Burton, and I were sitting in a dorm room studying for a physics exam. We had slowly realized the importance that conservation laws played in solving physical problems. The conservation of mass, charge, energy and momentum are important almost everywhere, but we realized that these laws alone were not sufficient. That was when we proposed the Conservation of Perversity. The Conservation of Perversity leads to some remarkable conclusions: If things seem to be going well, then either you aren't fully aware of what's really happening, or you are about to suffer a setback. The longer things seem to go well the larger the oversight or setback will be. It never fails. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
