Call me what you want, but looking at a reaction to every action and then an reaction to that action is wise business no matter who you are.
ACL,

That all makes sense... except for the fact that you cannot know for certain what the outcome (consequences) are of these "chess moves" you are talking about. There is an awful lot of opinion in what you write. And you make it sound like it's all a foregone conclusion. Too much faith in your own predictions can have some pretty bad consequences too.

I'd rather see us define our objective (hopefully that would be restoration of our profession) and then make sure every move we make is centered around that. A ship without a stated destination, wandering aimlessly, is not likely to get us where we want to go.
