Demonstrating that we are, after all, human. ;-)

Although I suggest that there miight be a third kind, which I think might
be defined as usually those that have had some experience:  *"iii) Those
that have learned when its now wise to break from the past, but have
learned enough from it to change just the amount that needs to be changed
and no more."*
