follow the leader

(Dag Forssell (920622-1) ) --

I can't conceive of a control system wanting to follow.

Oh, come on, Dag! You can't mean that, can you? Aren't there many
occasions when one control system wants to follow the lead of another
control system? And is this in itself pernicious? (Though it can be
abused--on both sides of the dyad, be it said! Nor does it end with
childhood. Nor is it always childlike, though abuse of childrens'
dependency does seem to result in many adolescents and adults comng to
abhor and scorn it and fear exposure of it in themselves. One of the
sure recipes for childishness.)

Have you ever taken a dance class?
