No. I didn't have any preference regarding the source or the
solution of your problem. But when I see thousands of possible
routes I don't start running and explore them one by one in the hope
that one of them will lead me to my goal. I try to gather
informations which allow me to reduce the number of possibles
routes. I don't try to repair something immediatly, I try to
understand the problem by running debug tools and doing simple tests
- like changing the folder.
