6303C07 SHSpec-247 When Faced With the Unusual, Do the Usual.

     Psychiatry never got anyplace because they never learned to do the usual
when faced with the unusual.  Every desperate remedy devised by Man occurred
because the practitioner Q and A'd with the patient.  The psychiatrist says
that he practices Freudian analysis, but he does it with Adler's twists on
Jung's version as interpreted by Karen Horney -- only he does it his way!
There might once have been a technology of psychiatry, but you could never
find it now, under all the stress-induced Q and A and alter-is that has been
added.

     If you do something unusual every time you see something unusual in a PC,
you will never make him clear.  He will be wrapped around a telephone pole.
The more precise the process and the more you figure-figure on it, the goofier
it will get.

     There is no constant number of items in a GPM.  This makes it possible to
end one GPM and go on into the next one without knowing that you are doing so,
especially if the PC's ruds are out when you end the first GPM, so that there
is no F/N, or it is so brief (say, 3 1/2 seconds) that you don't see it, or
you miss seeing the BD.  If you jam the second goal like that, you will get a
high stuck TA.  After awhile, no items will be findable and the goal stops
rocket reading.

     [More comments on specific goofs on running goals.]

     If the PC gives you a goal, you always take it, but you don't necessarily
do something with it.

     The only time you find no item on a list is when the item has already
been found.

     The PC isn't different.  He has the same bank, or he wouldn't be here in
this time-stratum at this time.

     Auditors are to be congratulated for their willingness to persist on a
case, but when one persists simply because one doesn't know what else to do,
one is doing the unusual.  What you are trying to do, with a GPM, is to run it
out, not just to find RI's.  The goal built the GPM, so you have to knock out
the RI's aligned to the goal, so the GPM will disappear.

     The clear check procedure is given in HCOB 22Feb63 "Routine 3M -- Rundown
by Steps".
