IC - Questions and Answers

[sythyry]

Perhaps I have spent too long on some Herethroy farmers who aren't even traff. So, I shall answer questions to-day. Perhaps I shall answer them wisely and well, perhaps flippantly and falsely, and, if you are very lucky, you or I will be able to tell which I did.

But beware! If you ask me a question, I may ask one back, which you are morally obliged to answer as well as I answered yours, if not better or worse!

I'm worried -- I'm certain -- that the current widespread spirit of idealism and devotion to making Kismirth a Good Place To Live, won't last very long. I hope it will last until Kismirth is indeed a Good Place To Live, say.

Magically-created cities are in fact taking more attention than naturally-grown ones.

Ah! Now I may interrogate you viciously! What does "long-term planning" mean to you personally, and do you think it is a good idea ever?

Ummmm.

It means being a good friend and relation and generally a good prime, I guess. I mean, that's the part that I try to do. I've heard stuff like 'deciding on a course of action and sticking through with it until the end' or 'buying property and building it up' or 'apprenticing and staying with a trade until you master it and then continuing to work in it until your apprentices and journeymen can support you' but none of those seem very practical. For me. I assume they work for other people!

That is remarkably sensible.
