"Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."

I think we've all met someone who was persistent and determined while
trying to make something work that *we* knew was impossible. Of course,
they failed.

I didn't see common sense on the list of traits that CC mentioned. That's
a pretty important trait to possess.

Okay, I'll confess I don't know what that's all about:

SPAN#sl0 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten -4s; }
SPAN#sl1 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten -3s; }
SPAN#sl2 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten -2s; }
SPAN#sl3 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten -1s; }
SPAN#sl4 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten 0s; }
SPAN#sl5 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten 1s; }
SPAN#sl6 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten 2s; }
SPAN#sl7 {animation: 10s linear infinite ten 3s; }

etc.
