Chutzpah
 Last Revision: nweek 23. Revision History 
Keywords: Chutzpah 

 Each Rule has an attribute called Chutzpah, which is a positive integer. In 
the event of a conflict between two or more rules, the rule with the highest 
Chutzpah takes precedence. 

If two or more rules have equal Chutzpah, the rule with the lowest 
identification number takes precedence. 

If at least one of the rules in conflict explicity says of itself that it 
defers to or takes precedence over another rule (or type of rule), then such 
provisions shall supersede the Chutzpah method for determining precedence. 

*************************

If two or more rules claim to take precedence over each other or to defer to 
one another, then the Chutzpah method again governs. 

*************************

Whenever one section of a rule conflicts with another section of the same 
rule, the section which appears later in the rule takes precedence over the 
earlier section.
