Dale B addressed this pithily:

"Tools are just that: tools. 

True, but his statement was incomplete... specifically, he forgot to ask a question: are these tools a means to an end, or are they crutches which are leaned on? 

 

I would add another: Do you use the tools, or do the tools use you? If you are the master, the results will be art. If you are the servant, then the results will be shit.

 

You should have that last one put on T-shirts, Peng, as it is quite true. So. When do you think we'll get into the having a tool vs. being a tool conversation?  8P
