Can't wait for more Tool.

I've acquired a fascination for events in threes. This isn't one of those "everything happens in three" things. It's just a way of attaching significance. Once is a fluke. Twice is an odd coincidence. Only with three data points does the possibility of a broader trend become credible. Einstein was a genius. He had the requisite three things: his explanation of the photo-electric effect (for which he got the Nobel Prize in 1921, not for his other work), and his theories of special and general relativity. Similarly, Newton had calculus, his theory of gravitation, and his law of motion. You need to make the triple threat before you've cemented your status. You're not a programmer until you've written three programs (at least). And so forth.
