What is a Metes and Bounds survey - ANSWER-A system or method
of describing land from English Common Law that uses physical
features of the local geography, along with directions and distances,
to define and describe the boundaries of a parcel of land. The
boundaries are described in a running prose style, working around
the parcel in sequence, from a point of beginning, returning back to
the same point. (The term "metes" refers to a boundary defined by
the measurement of each straight run, specified by a distance
between the terminal points, and an orientation or direction. A
direction may be a simple compass bearing, or a precise orientation
determined by accurate survey methods. The term "bounds" refers
to a more general boundary description, such as along a certain
watercourse, a stone wall, an adjoining public road way, or an
existing building.)
What is 'satisficing'? - ANSWER-A decision-making strategy that
attempts to meet criteria for adequacy, rather than to identify an

group looks towards a solution everyone can agree on even if it may
not be the best.
