I am reminded of the comment normally associated with Sherlock Holmes "Elementary, my dear Garland," (which of course was never actually said by Holmes in the first place).

I am reminded of one of Swift's better quotes:

"Last week I saw a woman flayed, and you will hardly believe how much it altered her person for the worse."

I posted this, because earlier there were some people on this site asking why they couldn't put cart paths in and use carts at Chambers Bay. Some of those people wouldn't take our answer, so I found that answer given by the architects when they did the course.

But did it improve her attitude?  ???

Kind of nonspecific comment. Care to fill us in on the details?
