What women/men want

[Ankesh]

Thanks folks for keeping up with my jargon.

I just realized that not everyone may know what a trimtab is.

Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Mary -- the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing at the edge of the rudder called a trim tab.

It's a miniature rudder. Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the little individual can be a trim tab. Society thinks it's going right by you, that it's left you altogether. But if you're doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that you can just put your foot out like that and the whole big ship of state is going to go.

So I said, call me Trim Tab.

A big ass ships direction can be changed with little to no effort by moving the small little trimtab!

Bucky knew one little guy could change the world if he positioned and leveraged himself properly.
