Chapter 35: Streetwise
Faith
“If you see on one side of the street a group of two marauding rioters and looters, and on the other side of the street a group of three marauding rioters and looters, cross the street: It is easier to fight three people than it is to fight two,” said Zane.
“How on earth can that be so?” said Cooper.
“Because two can coordinate better than three. Three trying to fight are very disorganized. I mean only that your chances are slightly better - you are pretty much done for either way.”
Zane couldn’t go with us back to our purloined boat to travel Maria back to Panama to have her baby, and he was doing his best to equip us with advice instead.
