That was actually a joke. The real reason not to keep plans open is there are no plans in<div>the conventional meaning of the word. Let&#39;s check:</div><div><div><br></div><div>&quot;  1. A draught or form; properly, a representation drawn on a</div>
<div>plane, as a map or a chart; especially, a top view, as of a machine,</div><div>or the representation or delineation of a horizontal section</div><div>of anything, as of a building; a graphic representation; a diagram.</div>
<div>  </div><div>  2. A scheme devised; a method of action or procedure expressed</div><div>or described in language; a project; as, the plan of a constitution;</div><div>the plan of an expedition.</div><div>  God&#39;s plans like lines pure and white unfold. M. R. Smith.</div>
<div>  </div><div>  3. A method; a way of procedure; a custom.</div><div>  The simple plan,</div><div>   That they should take who have the power,</div><div>   And they should keep who can. Wordsworth.</div><div>  Body plan, </div>
<div>  Floor plan, etc. See under /Body/, /Floor/, etc.</div><div>  Syn. -- Scheme; draught; delineation; plot; sketch; project;</div><div>design; contrivance; device. See /Scheme/.&quot;</div><div><br></div><div>No, I don&#39;t think anything has ever been as concrete as that. Dreams, perhaps.</div>
<div>We could share our dreams, I suppose. Really, we just make it up as we go along, I think.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 15 May 2012 13:19, Christoph Lohmann <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:20h@r-36.net" target="_blank">20h@r-36.net</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>
