          that's what we call: legendary patience. One we hear about freely enough, but rarely observe.

                  When looking for appropriate effective advice, I can't seem to find it. Balance is off between efficacy and straightforwardness. Making advice too technical or pretty general.

                  Keen for good resources that have been distilled for general audiences. It's a sea of sludge out there.

                      @evacide Beyond why, I'm working on how to make inroads to turn it around even a little. I'm always interested in ideas along that line if anyone cares to share.
