Leonardo da Vinci was also a master of scouting between the close and the far. As an expert engineer he tackled real-world problems, some that were immediately relevant and some that qualified as science fiction in his day. At the applicable end, he knew that the locks on the waterways in Milan were hard to operate and prone to flooding. So he threw himself at the problem and generated a novel solution: he replaced the vertically - dropping gate with a hinged double-door that opened horizontally and provided a more watertight seal. It was a modest change that proved of lasting value. His basic design is still in use. ~ Page 167
. . . Leonardo da Vinci would persistently distrust his first solution to any problem -- suspicious that it was the result of overlearned routine -- and dig around for something better. He always worked to derail himself from his path of least resistance, to discover what else was hidden in the richness of his neural networks ~ Page 184
