This isn't new. It is driven partially by the fear of inadequacy. More is better because I am showing them why they hired me. It is a temptation that we all have. Can we say "Less is the new Moore's Law?"

The failing of Mr Creosote was not taking the time to digest what he was consuming. No time taken by him to learn how his experience of life was affected by what he had eaten. The adult learning foundation of 'spaced repetiton' is an essential environmental element that enables Mr Creosote's digestion. But that spaced repetition digestion takes time. And as the Taylorist maxim dictates "time is money", and that means no one "ain't got no time for that!"

Thanks - what i enjoy about using analogies is that folks watching can make useful interpretations like this! And there's something about pacing that comes out of this too.
