   While this goes against knee-jerk new-age feel-good (and apparently 
highly hyphenated) logic, I respectfully submit that this is not always 
a good thing.  Sometimes a project needs leadership and direction, not 
just random competition (read: mud-slinging) by random people.  People 
letting their ideas compete is what got us in the mess we're in now.
