My friend was called to pick up his five-year-old daughter from kindergarten early due to her misbehavior. Her transgression? She was one of the three girls her age singing, “I am sexy, and I know it.”

This incident always comes to mind when I read that Ev has a concept. Ev knows that Medium is a sexy concept. But being around for a while, I concluded that he understands it as much as those 5-year-old girls. The girls will grow up fast and will figure it out.

Ev, as Churchill characterized Americans, eventually will do the right thing after trying everything else first. Hence, Medium will survive, but under the assumption that Ev has pocket deep enough for trying everything else before doing the right thing. And, under the condition that someone else with a deep pocket will not learn faster from Ev’s mistakes.
