May. 9th, 2007 10:09 amIn How to win friends and influence people, Carnegie suggests that before we take any action which might backfire we ask the question: "What would Abraham Lincoln do?", Lincon being, in his eyes, the epitome of diplomacy and politeness. Asking what others would do in a given situation is a good way of looking at things from another perspective and opening up other avenues of behaviour.
It's pretty much a given that two heads are better than one, but what is the optimum number of heads before too many cooks spoil the broth? I'd say that history tell us the answer: four, because that's the number of members of the A-team, possibly history's greatest problem-solving group.
We're lucky enough today to have the members of the A-Team taking a break from their hectic lives as soldiers of fortune to give you the benefit of their advice. So - do you have a problem? Can nobody else help? Send your questions and problems in answers and the gang can solve your woes.

Our abandoned firework factory, enormous conveyor belt manufacturing plant, and abandoned mecha-hitler are at your disposal.

Date: 2007-05-09 03:34 pm (UTC)Here's what we're going to do. BA will inspire the kids to haul the cows to the top of one of your tower blocks. When the banditos ride into town, we'll down the cows behind them, blocking their escape. Then Murdoch will fly over them in a jury-rigged hang-glider shooting at them whilst Face lays down covering fire.
When the shooting stops, they'll have changed their ways.
