Already patched into the kernel before rebooting.

0. Survival. ;Assumed to be a constant background process, with hugely variable obligations including financial.

Remaining efforts are best accomplished in series to reduce the negative effects of potential setbacks, but I don't have time or resources for that any more so my mission has these running concurrently. Just have to accept the natural order that allows/delays/prevents achievements of priorities further down the list, dynamically or not.

1. Disaster Mitigation & Recovery.

2. Progress, largely scientific, in an invoiceable way. ;if more effective scientific equipment is needed that should not be a limitation

3. Wider progress, directly or indirectly funded by the invoices. ;if more effective musical equipment is needed that should not be a limitation

4. Focus on realization of theoretical milestones in instrumentation, alternative energy, conservation, and recycling.

5. Prosperity.

6. GOTO 2. ;bypass reinitialization, pass GO collect 200 dollars

So it's not a simple 1, 2, 3 process, plus 4, 5, & 6 are where it really gets good too. Looks like I'm going to really need to work & live as long & hard as I can before I could ever say "mission accomplished".
