I'll make this real short....especially since I didn't make it clear previously. My comment was an isolated comment on Lil Chris comment. I see that comment on here frequently (Only focus on the What, not the HOW) and it was one of those moment where I just wanted to say....I understand that in a case like THIS you don't always know the HOW and therefore you ONLY focus on the WHAT (maybe in tandem with the WHY). But you can't exclusively say that you NEVER focus on the HOW. That's all. (Hence the example of the marathon....You must have thought I was completely stupid if you thought the HOW to Maranik's situation was to run a marathon.)

For the record...my earlier comment had NOTHING to do with Marinik's original post...it was just a random comment. I apologize for the confusion.

Lil Chris...I'd be happy to answer your last few questions if I understood what you meant. So you can try again if you'd like. I'm just really confused about the 'former", "latter" and specifically what you're asking.

Thanks
