If you hold a funnel in your hand, and you try to use a pressure
washer to force 100 gallons a minute through that funnel, not
only will the funnel not be able to accomodate that flow, but
you will also get wet in the process. If, however, you adjust
the water flow so that it is at slightly less than the capacity
of the funnel, not only will you not get wet, but everything
will flow smoothly, and the stream emanating from the end of the
funnel will be a thing of beauty...
