"I was to learn later in life that we tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing, and a wonderful method it can be for creating the illusion of program while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization."

-possibly Petronius Arbiter from around 210 B.C.

Reminds me of every SCA officer who has started by revising the rules for

the light at the end of the tunnel and don't keep up with some of the

day-to-day things. Total revision? Yep, this fits.
