how long can one successfully DB in the face of this? Seems to me that, if after, say, 2 or 3 years, the SAS can't get the whole ball of wax, well, then, it's time for him to walk. Doncha think?



I would tend to think that how long one is willing to wait for the type of commited and fullfilling r they want is entirly up to each individual..

yes, I agree inevidably if you don't get "the whole ball of wax" that you are seeking...you will walk.
the time span that we are willing to wait is up to us...
