>The tribal wisdom of the Plains Indians, passed on from generation to

>"When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy 
>is to dismount.

>"However, in government (and academia) more advanced strategies are 
>often employed, such as:
>
>
>1. Buying a stronger whip.
>
>2. Changing riders.
>
>3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
>
>4. Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride 
>dead horses.
>
>5. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
>
>6. Reclassifying the dead horse as living impaired.
>
>7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
>
>8. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.
>
>9. Providing additional funding and/or training to increase the dead 
>horse's performance.
>
>10. Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve 
>the dead horse's performance.
>
>11. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less 
>costly, carries lower overhead and therefore contributes substantially 
>more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses.
>
>12. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.
>
>And, of course ...
>
>13. Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.
