Retrieving Lost Luggage

Here's an excellent piece from a priest explaining how he got his parish to accept the Extraordinary Form of the Mass with little difficulty -- and improved the quality of worship in the Ordinary Form as well. RTWT, but I very much like this analogy, in rebuttal and rebuke of those who say free use of the EF is "going backwards." 

Such recovery is not “going backwards”, or doing a U-turn, since the Ordinary Form will continue in use. Rather, it is a halting of the train to retrieve what has fallen from the carriage before our continuance. Many folk seem unable to grasp the distinction.
