Sure, but before we go spending lots of money, we need to be reasonably confident that there really is a problem.

Yeah, but let’s not actually expend any effort in trying to become reasonably confident.

Damn it, here I am all ready to post, “Oh my. I’d have thought I would have picked it up on the Smell-O-Scope,” only to find I’d been reference-scooped. Oh well - perhaps you’d be interested in a death clock?
