I was aiming for a poor solution. It's a case of the worst being the best.
Seriously this is the worst possible time to begin monitoring the p-list.
We are going into a part of the book that exalts emotion and the

important than strict adherence to rules and traditional procedures--all
in the service of spiritual truth.
Let us be moths and seek the flame. We do want change, don't we???
