You never know what the future holds. Of course, we try to maintain a positive outlook which is not always easy as an IRP lawyer. But we’ve got our fingers crossed for some IRP news.
Over the years our attitude and outlook has improved because we made a lot of headway in our ongoing fight against the IRP laws. These days we’re feeling pretty good.
Sometimes we try to predict the future. As lawyers we do this all of the time. What surprises us is how often we have accurately predicted the future. Looking back at comments we’ve made here on our blog over the last few years, we’ve done a very good job predicting certain things.
We surprise ourselves with our prognostication skills. We must be good lawyers. Some people dislike us for that very reason. C’est la vie.
Of course, often we refuse to make a prediction. Although we try to think positively, as lawyers we know our optimism can cloud our objectivity, particularly when emotions run high. So there are times when any prediction we make would be coloured by our dreams for a better world.
It’s not easy being an IRP lawyer.
In any event, early this week we expect some significant IRP news. You might want to cross your fingers. Oh, and check back here later in the day for updates.
