...likely a good indication of what she can expect next year. Miles starts kindergarten in September. The school begins too late and ends too early for April’s work day, which means she will have to drop him in daycare early, go to the lab, then move him from daycare to school, then back to the lab, then move him from school to daycare, then back to the lab, and finally pick him up to go home.

The slow-moving dialogue drives issues at a pace largely irrelevant to what they demand and removes the chance for spontaneity. The U.S.-China joint reaction to the financial crisis is a better model: it was and is informal and constant, based on working groups that evolve and move at adjustable paces.
