The top and then some ….
A little story from, you-probably-know-where, is about a 30 m high pile.

Two people who are no longer standing next to each other but who, if only for an hour, seriously overlap.

No ego’s.
OK.
A wave is coming
and a wave is going.
Ethics? Of course! Without ethics, you fall right down the pile.
