In order to light one of the burners on our stove, we have to blow on it. Sometimes I don't know if the gas is going to build up so much and then ignite, blowing off my eyebrows. I would consider this needed sequence in lighting the stove a kludge, but it's one that doesn't impede my progress much, and I'm actually quite skilled in producing the needed breeze. So I guess you could call it a benign kludge. How many benign kludges, I wonder, are there in my life?
