As Richard points out, it isn't quite 'can't be done', and
it isn't dogma: it's basic science.

The worst dogmatists are dogmatists who believe they are right.

Like fanatics who see enemies everywhere.

I think it's little use discussing why it **must** be impossible.

Let's do the job and that's it.

I suppose people like you would never help somebody go to the moon

because it is **obviously** impossible to do.

 

I don't believe in the "can't be done" dogma

and I maintain that that kind of "think negative" attitude is useless :

it is just individual incompetence theorized as everylasting boundary to mankind.
