I actually like the idea about knowing and not knowing.- If you know, all is well. .If you know you don’t know, you can find out if possible or simply allow for your ignorance. That’s the reason you don’t pass on hills or curves; you know you don’t know what might be about to come around the curve at you.- If you think you know but are wrong, that can bite you in the rear. Things like, “I know there’s no buried IEDs ahead,” when there might be. Things like, “I’m sure the seals on the shuttle won’t be affected by cold weather,” when they will..I didn’t like Rumsfeld, but that’s another matter, too much like McNamara for my taste.
Just remember the cosmos has a wicked sense of humour. Which is why Agnes is savouring the moment and the Principal is considering his place in the Great Cycle and how he can avoid savouring the moment with Agnes.

Agnes does indeed raise savoring to an art form.

There are those things you know, things you know you don’t know,things you don’t know you don’t know, and…part of a
well-rehearsed patter from NLP training, pretty much as used by Rumsfeld, as also taught by Gingrich’s teachers…

Also part of a pretty good checklist used by some planners…
