Is that all?

By no means? This is just a beginning which is provided here to encourage the reader who may not be familiar with what is going on at the leading edge in the field, that there are a huge amount of tools of many sorts available. No one of these are going to do the whole job. Indeed, most will be at best what we call "2% solutions". But you add enough of them together and concatenate them into a strong synergistic package, and there you have the makings of your successful 20/20 program.
