Not just reading it, but so mesmerized by it that I actually thought I could do it.

Just a couple of weeks ago I was invited back to a site where I have been persona non grata for over a year for not only refusing to sign off on a design, but also saying "you can't do that"--in fairly explicit language too. But you know what? They have not only come round to my view in the end, they now call the current approach "Roy's design".

The best part is, the next time I tell them something can't be done, they will listen before they waste a seven-figure sum. (I am not sure that is a burden I am fit to carry, but it feels good right now.)
