Because any unique and creative thinker can be "enticed" to respond is 
cooed and cagoled cleverly enough, I agree.  This is like putting a 
thermometer in hot water and waiting to see if the temperature will rise.

If you draw a circle in the sand and study only what's inside the circle, 
then that is a closed-system perspective. If you study what is inside the 
circle and everything outside the circle, then that is an open system 
perspective.
