-## Advanced: Undergone development, moved some steps forward
-
-People tend to look at the word "advanced" as a positive term - as similar to
-"improved". But all it means is it has undergone development.
-
->A rotten tomato is an advanced tomato.
-
-To determine if development is positive one must consider the direction it is
-taking.
-
-One could say that advancing implies moving forward, but "forward" isn't
-always the best way to go.
-
-## Logical: Structured, clinical
-
-Logical is not the same as "simple".
-Although logical expressions can be as simple as "2+2=4", a computer contains
-so many layers of logic that they cease to be simple.
-
->Computers are constructed logically, but so complex that they can be built only
->"somewhat flawless."
-
-## Effective: having a rapid impact
-
-When you are effective you get alot done in a small amount of time or effort.
-
-A tool is effective only if you become effective by using it.
-
->For someone who don't know the path, no wind is a good wind.
-
-## Problem solving
-
-Biggest challenges is in locating and describing a problem, not in fixing it.
-Problem solving badly prepared can even be damaging, because problematic
-structures below the surface can get even better hidden by a too simple "quick
-fix".
