1. How do you decide what's the "right thing?"
2. Do you mean just physical harm? How about causing offense? (PC?) And how
can we tell whether we harm or not? Decisions can have unintended consequences.

probably be better off just painting and forgetting about such questions. Feel
free to ignore them. I don't mean to press.
