The analogy is perhaps a good one - I am just not sure which side is now supposed to be Don Quixote and who are the windmills?

Chords Req: Old Man's Song (Don Quixote)?

Perhaps the attempt to scorn and ridicule what is judged to be a Quixotic quest - is now seen to be more foolish and desparate and to be carried out in far more 'Quixotic' fashion that the original?

Which could have been ignored.
