When things go
wrong, you have a practice room, a model of how to behave. Carton books
when their messages bore; realign the yin and yang of shoes when they get
under, rather than on, the feet. But be careful. Leave something inside
too long and presto!--mildew and silverfish. Even at your most ambitious,
aim for less than magic, say a shift in varieties of the mundane. B. F.
Skinner used a box to teach pigeons to play ping-pong and pace in figure
eights.
