You may not have enough information to make a decision, and hey,
that's fine. But I do, and I made my call. So much for the "we"! Even
that is just a tempest in a teapot, though, because I put my thoughts
into perspective by saying "But more important than my thoughts,
though -- what is your gut telling you?" Nothing any of us says is
going to matter compared to the experience he has on the ground. That
last point is worth emphasizing and repeating, because the gut is
often a good prognosticator of danger and excessive stress.
