Hi Simon,

A very interesting challenge.... I don't have a response yet but I'll try to see if I can think something up! (I liked Adam's response.... :))

Yes, Einstein was big on "thought experiments". Galileo was too.... They're a very powerful technique. I've even published some of my own "thought experiments" in physics too (in some research papers)....

It also makes sense you could "think" your way through various hypotheticals, then try them out, to make it big in business too....

I can see how doing lots of these would really help develop your "street smarts"!

Thanks Simon.... This is very interesting.... Now I have to go and ponder.... :)
