 They've done this before.
 I told 'em eliminate them *all* and have a single "reasonable man" rule.
 If a reasonable man acting reasonably would do it, it's OK, otherwise it's not.
 The engineering types smiled knowingly.
 The lawyers looked all confused, and made comments about how
 that could *never* work, because no one would *ever* have a clue
 what's reasonable with out explicitly detailed rules to tell them so.

 Guess who won.
