Dear Ken,
While it is very enjoyable to work out whether 10 out of 10 criteria have
been met in any situation that someone might ascribe the term ³problem²
to, I think tomorrow would have long become yesterday before there was a
resolution.
That is, as Hegel might have said, one could spend his whole life cleaning
his gun and never shoot.
I canıt see that there is much use for the concept of a wicked problem if
it is simply a glass bead game.
Cheers
Keith
PS - My syntax, in the tomorrow example I provided, is exact if
unaccommodating of the kinds of logics that might remedy its meaning by
rendering it as something it is not.
