I think the fish metaphor has moved to a third level. e.g.:<BR>
<BR>
Give a person a fish, they eat for that day.<BR>
<BR>
Teach a person to fish, they eat for the all their lives.<BR>
<BR>
Turn a person on about fishing, they invent new ways to fish.<BR>
<BR>
I think the third level is where we should be aiming our efforts in all that we do because a turned on person is both unpredictable and powerful. Becoming unpredictable is a good thing. Becoming powerful means one has the chance to influence events through unexpected change.<BR>
