> 2. Changing riders.
> 3. Saying "This is the way we always have ridden this horse."
> 4. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
> 5. Arranging to visit other sites to see how they ride dead horses.
> 6. Increasing the standards to ride dead horses.
> 7. Appointing a tiger team to revive the dead horse.
> 8. Creating a training session to increase our riding ability.
> 9. Comparing the state of dead horses in today's environment.
> 10. Change the requirements declaring that "This horse is not dead."
> 11. Hire contractors to ride the dead horse.
> 12. Harnessing several dead horses together for increased speed.
> 13. Declaring that "No horse is too dead to beat."
> 14. Providing additional funding to increase the horse's performance.
> 15. Do a CA Study to see if contractors can ride it cheaper.
> 16. Purchase a product to make dead horses run faster.
> 17. Declare the horse is "better, faster and cheaper" dead.
