Refrain from discarding the infant along with it's cleansing solution.

Like a domesticated feline on a heated metal building top.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If one is seriously troubled by some aspect of a proposal it would be most wise to simply discount the entire idea and not act on it.

Even the smallest amount of the coin of the realm is indeed of value if kept as part of the fortune amassed as a result of your faithful endeavors. - Ann
