Quality can be achieved by anyone with a mind to do it.
It sounds like self-help audio cassette bullshit, but it's
actually true.
Come on Simon, you've read "Zen and...", Persig may've
been spouting seven shades of shit through some of the
book but he got the motorcycle maintainance bit right.
You don't need to know how to fix the bike, all you need
to know is how to look at the problem.
All the "je ne sais quoi" people do is look at the problem
and apply themselves to it.
There is more to it than that, but that's just in your head.
(e.g. "Cool" people can wear stupid clothes and get away
with it.)
