Driving for two

First of all, definition. Mathematicians always come back to definition, though. ;-) This is a term I copied from an article I read years ago, meaning driving + leading the way for another car.

Last week I had the experience. Observation: it was easier when you drive an easily spotted car. :D Related to that, driving for two is much more difficult in the evening, when it's dark.

this is another version :

when it came into the darkness, some definitions would be left incomplete :).

Related to this corollary, it seems to me that Shakespeare had spotted the 'lost' observation (maybe in the early morning :), at the heart of Reneissance era, hehe); led it into clear insight. As he expressed in Polonius (to Hamlet) with parallel sentence :

"though this be madness, yet there is method in't."

hahaha... that's indeed in one another day before that scene, Hamlet had criticized Horatio in such a way like this:

"...there are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy." .... :P

That's why Edison invented lightbulb ... to enlighten the darkness. :P
