- Indeed. However, if one is going to postulate solutions to the present
- problems, I might point out that it may be prudent to postulate problems
- with the proposed solutions to the problems at the same time, so as to
- prevent the possibility of problems precipitating themselves at some time
- post-present, when the resolution of the previously unpredicted problems
- may be made somewhat more problematic, if not enitrely prevented, by a
- poor perusal of the proposed solution, or a least poor planning.
