1. they can do that by always applying the
wrong policy letter. All you have to do is take the
policy letter that applies to A and instead of
following that find another one that doesn't really apply to A. But find something in it that can be
construed as to apply to this and they say "Well you see we can't do that."
Policy was designed to tell people things they could do, and when it tells them not to do something it's trying to put edges on the
channel so they won't go off of it. But what
channel? The
channel of doing something
right. Now if a fellow doesn't know the
policy that gives him the
main channel and only knows the
policy that tells him to
stop then you will get people using
policy to
stop.
(ESTO 11, 7203CO6 SO I) 2. a person not doing his
post purpose will pick
bits of
policy out that seem to
state the
order given cannot be followed. If you
track down such a person's
post purpose you will find he or she hasn't
got it and is using
policy to
stop.
