In competitive games, where everybody has to lose for one to win, things are strange, absurd and sad. Las Vegas and Wall Street play this kind of games.
The rules contradict each other: Winners don't quit, Quitters don't win, and Quit while you are ahead. The final rule, as stated by Mr. Keynes, is: "in the long run, we are all dead." No use trying to find the logic there.
In collaborative games, where everybody wins as long as nobody loses, the rules are different: Larger pies have larger slices. Winners win if they help quitters. If you're ahead, you can help more.

About Me
- Fungus
- Santiago de Queretaro, Queretaro, Mexico
- Fungus is a name that started as a joke between my son (Magus) and I. I keep it because it helps me remember to be humble and to take myself lightly. Fungi are small and rather simple life forms, but they are very efficient and unstoppable change agents. Fungus
