The same thing that happened to $.25 a gallon for gas, $2500 for cars,
$20,000 for houses and $.15 for a loaf of bread.

"Rules are made to be broken" -- true. Also true is that breaking rules out of
ignorace leads to disaster, while breaking them from knowledge can lead to the
truly special. It can also lead to disaster, too. Don't break rules unless you
know them well enough to know when they shouldn't apply.
