What I can do, nobody can do.  Furthermore, I have no morals.  When you are in unfamiliar
territory it is wise to find a guide.  You are the soldier, I am the four star general.
If you are incapable of taking instructions, it's likely that you die.  Makes no difference
to me.  My only concern is if you get blown away, your partners will get blown away with you.
