Re optimists?
Optimism is often a way of not dealing with something. Mind you some things are best left to fade.  Am I so busy because I am competent? That sounds better than i thought.

Benzinha, the media feeds us what we want, and what gets our attention...
...is dirt, threat, and sex. By "we" I mean the majority of folks who sit and watch and buy what's being sold. Yes, agrees, the competent ones in any field are the quietest, they're busy.

Re: Clever ones scare me.
majroj, it's the media who have made the clever ones look horrible, by pointing out the maliciously clever ones. I mean the Mo Udalls and the like.

Re: Great idea

azur, but hopeless, no?

It is amazing to me that over the centuries and millennia, that the word 'Optimist'  is still in use.
