+++'''Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do.'''~~~^[http://deoxy.org/watch/-2947080388644681582]^~~~ Think of the Queen Mary - the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there’s a tiny thing on the edge of the rudder called a trim-tab. +++

+++It’s a miniature rudder. Just moving that little trim-tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. '''So I said that the little individual can be a trim-tab'''. +++,,

+++Society thinks it’s going right by you, that it’s left you altogether. But if you’re doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that [http://deoxy.org/you you] can just put your foot out like that and the whole big ship of state is going to go. +++

+++So I said,+++ ++++'Call me '''TrimTab'''.'++++
