The problem with "thinking outside the box" is that when too many people do it, there aren't enough people left thinking inside it!
Call me a bluff old traditionalist ("you're a bluff old traditionalist"), but if people were a little less preoccupied with what happens outside the box and looked after the basics, we wouldn't have many of the punk decisions made that result in the screwed up "blue sky" initiatives of Airships/Politicians/bureaucrats.......
