If your handling because something happened and you were unprepared for it that's not forced, It's improvised. I have been lazy myself , but more often than not I have 4 catchcups within arms reach. My point is, that if you're diligent, you never have to handle, but you're right we are all human and things happen we forget, we take things for granted, and we get lazy; but the terminology of forced/necessary handling has always irritated me. Handling CAN be prevented.</p></blockquote><p></p>
