Maybe something(s) have changes since I started out, and stopped, oh, any number of years ago, but we focused on mics, not the number of tabs or sheets of windowpane, or bits of blotter. How many mics are "standard" these days? Back in my day, about 150 was the norm. On a lucky day, one could find 225 mic of Whitehead. But that was quite some time ago.
I always thought that the vitamin A rewiring was forced, some it did to you, while mushrooms invited you. I remember a friend, taking fresh mushrooms for the first time, pissed because "nothing was happening." When pressed, he added, "well, the mountains are breathing but that's it." Expectation plays such a huge role.
