Tim sez:

"I don't know if I'm there yet -- I've finished projects, fat and happy
in a pile of new tools, then realized that I could have done the whole
thing with a sharp stick and a rock."

Right on, Tim ! It kinda differentiates engineers from the "inspired tinkerers" from whom most
great ideas originate. It adds validity to the old saw which states, "Technology without
mathematics would only be two weeks behind".
