What will you need to be able to identify how effective you have been? How will you know? What will it look like? How long will change take?

7. Something to think about ...
Remember these photos? Yep, they were fakes. Not bad for the 1920s when the camera really 'didn't lie'. But the plot thickens around the final photo... The Cottingley Fairies (6:30)
