1. two facts don't jibe so you try to rationalize these two facts and interrogate on these two facts. You will get another [[POINT|point]] you don't understand. When you try to get this point understood you will now find another [[FACT|fact]] that you don't understand and along about that way someplace pulling on this string you find the General Sherman tank and that is simply somebody who is trying to [[STOP|stop]] things.

2. an [[ETHICS_OFFICER|Ethics Officer]]'s first [[JOB|job]] is usually cleaning up the [[ORG|org]] of its [[POTENTIAL|potential]] trouble sources and requesting a [[COMMITTEE_OF_EVIDENCE|Committee of Evidence]] for the suppressives. That gets things in focus quickly and smoothes an org down so it will function. Then one looks for down [[STATISTICS|statistics]] in the [[OIC|OIC]] charts. These aren't understandable, of [[COURSE|course]], so one interrogates by sending interrogatives to the people concerned. In their answers there will be something that doesn't make sense at all to the [[ETHICS|Ethics]] [[OFFICER|Officer]]. Example: "We can't pay the [[BILLS|bills]] because Josie has been on course." The Ethics Officer is only looking for something he himself can't [[RECONCILE|reconcile]]. So he sends interrogatives to the person who wrote it and to Josie. Sooner or later some wild [[WITHHOLD|withhold]] or even a [[CRIME|crime]] shows up when one does this. The trick of this "[[ORG_AUDITING|org auditing]]" is to find a piece of string sticking [[OUT|out]]-something one can't understand, and, by interrogatives, pull on it. A small cat shows up. Pull with some more interrogatives. A baby gorilla shows up. Pull some more. A [[TIGER|tiger]] appears. Pull again and wow! You've got a General Sherman tank!
