Abstract: Abstract When you are working forwards towards the completion of a project, it is like riding on the Cresta Run — it feels as though you are out of control, there is absolutely no way of stopping and you have got to steer it to stay in that narrow groove all the way to the end. And, almost always, I have done. But it has definitely got no brakes. Nothing stops time.
