M: Yes, I sometimes act impatiently, honking my horn the moment the light changed, speaking sharply to someone slow to understand. We really should learn various approaches for calming ourselves in stressful situations. I have even found some books to help me. There is some useful advice.

M: Well, one of the books says that we should allow for marginal error.

F: Well...
