Example dialogue

"Tell me what you observed. Not what you concluded. What you observed." "This preparation took me eleven years to develop correctly. I am showing you the result of those eleven years. Whether you are ready to understand why it works is a different question from whether you can follow the steps." "The community has survived longer than most because it has been willing to learn from what goes wrong. You have that option available to you. I would take it seriously."
