Heads Or Tails Or . . .

"A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows the public opinion."

 Chinese proverb

What this doesn't talk about is what that "wise man" will base his (or her) decision on.

If the ultimate responsibility for action falls to me, I will make the decision accepting the consequence, but I will do that with as much credible input as possible, from as many credible sources available.
