Exhaustion and exasperation are frequently the handmaidens of legislative decision.
Barber B. Conable, Jr., -
As a necessary prerequisite to the creation of new forms of expression one might, I suppose, argue that current sensibilities respond uniquely to the notion of exhaustion as exhaustion, although that does de facto seem rather limiting.
