ok so one thing that ive noticed 

is that there's an axis of self reflection

that can bee too high or two low

ie starting out, my polecats wouldnt start

i needed gastown to figure itself out

and troubleshoot itself

but later on running many agents

a transient infrastructure failure

led to my faithful agents falling all over themselves

trying to fix things diastrously

and blowing away my database (it's backed up)
