Not true! Some care, but others stand in the way.  Many things would be
otherwise if those who do not care, would stop bothering and getting
in the way of those who do care. It is that simple!

The Domino effect....

One person cares, others see, so more care as a result.
One person does NOT care, other see, so more do NOT care as a result.

It just takes 1 domino to drop to start the chain reaction. Yet for
years people just say there is no one to do the work. When that is NOT
the case. How does blocking and running off the few who care do the
work help to fix problems, bugs, etc. Much less draw in others to
do the same. That says to others, WE do not care. Thus we run off those
who do care and will do the work.

Do something! Lead follow or GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!!
