A final problem in modeling is the tendency to believe the results. Let

me end with a quote on this furnished by Stan Auerbach which summarizes
what I would say, however in a much improved manner over what I can

muster.

“The result is a work of art, sometimes good, sometimes bad,

but almost always giving us, the creators, a feeling of euphoria.

This

euphoria often lives on for some time unless we make the mistake of
comparing our creation with God's. For, unfortunately, He rarely agrees
with us, and He is, by definition, always right." (Passioura, 1973).
