Yes--the norm, rather than the exception. Again, part of the groundwork that made this a reality, was John's teaching. Do you recall how he often stated that it would be fine for him if other people...to accomplish an objective...had to step on top of him? I eventually envisioned a stampede toward an exit--probably not what he had in mind.
