Another Test

This last diagram can be understood as two extremely thin cones joined base to base. It is our optimistic ending model, the needle, and a metaphor for a well-conceived design procedure. The needle goes on ahead and crisply supplies the cleavage through which a thread of goodly intelligence is passed. Without the needle, the course of the thread is hopeless. Yet, once the thread is through, the presence of a messenger is nowhere evidenced in the final work.

The needle is therefore a catalyst—it remains unchanged by its contribution. Still, the whole cloth is in some manner reconfigured. The resulting threads of information (as long as they remain structurally intact) will forever bind that which they drew together. Sub-problems are non-occurring or dispersed through a contained system. link text
