Your assertion is probably as highly professional as possible. In another
mailing list, there was a brief discussion of Robert Pirsig's "Zen and the
Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". One message gave a quote from the book
that I'd missed in reading the book: "Care and Quality are the internal
and external aspects of the same thing." Since having it pointed out to
me, I keep finding ways in which it applies.
