By which I mean no one person.<br />It's usually the result of a sequence of <br />events, choices, accidents and compromises. In other words:<br /><br><br />"things are the way the are because they got that way"<br /><br><br />And similarly I think most of the time no one maintains it. The situation just bobs along all by itself; a stuck steady-state-system.<br /><br><br />I just have this feeling that saying "it's a situation problem" carries less inherent blame than saying "it's a people problem". Mind you, I'm still looking for something even better. Situation problem doesn't roll off the tongue nearly as nicely as people problem.<br /><br><br />P.S. Looking forward to getting my PSL letter. And very sorry I can't make AYE this year.
