Abstract

This will be undoubtedly one of the strangest term papers ever written in this class. It contains no algorithms, no fancy techniques relating to OR, no problems (of the ordinary sort), and no solutions. For the OR student, its only value lies in demonstrating the fact that, in this field, the problem is usually not machines, but rather people. It is especially recommended for those students who are certain that the world is pantingly eager to be optimized.
