1	+	If the discussion above sounds like gobbledygook to you, consider the famous Heinlein quote:
2	+
3	+	A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog,
4	+	conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall,
5	+	set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone,
6	+	solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal,
7	+	fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
8	+
9	+	Presumably Heinlein meant his list to be representative and fluid rather than exhaustive and static.
10	+	Presumably he also meant to suggest a capacity for generalized learning of new skills, including the
11	+	skill of delineating and mastering entirely new skills.
