Start by describing them.

"Simplifying difficult situations"

... is what Marketing does. You're on the wrong website.

Already been done. Some principles to ponder:

Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem (Entities must not be multiplied beyond necessity)

Pluralitas non est ponenda sine necessitate (Plurality should not be posited without necessity)

Review the "Law of Succinctness", or "Law of Parsimony"

Difficulty

By difficulty one assumes problem solving? Therefore simplifying a difficult situations depends on ones experience? Experience is ones ability to recognise a situation. A simple test to raise ones awareness of what experience is, is to get a book which you have never read before, then slowly turn over the pages from the beginning, when finished, start over again, as you progress you will recognise individual pages by either a picture or wording, and you would not necessary have any recollection of these pages before hand, but this does not stop you recognising them. A difficult situation is one where you have no personal experience that enables you to recognise. But to expand this situation further, one does have experience of life in general, and engineers do so on a daily basis. Therefore to simplifying a difficult situations use your instincts, seek advice, and trust in your self.

There is no such thing as a difficult situation, only situations that are perceived to be difficult.

Complicating simple situations

It seems you've tried to create such a situation here. Please contact the advertising department with your ads in the future.

Thanks!

I'm just waiting for a manufacturer of beard trimmers and shavers to adopt the brand name "Ockham's"! Every philosopher would have to buy one.

So you think that by revealing the bare facts, you might just get the answer by a close shave. ummmmm.

Hello Tornado.

Hyuk yuk yuk yuk!

This, another great idea from you. As you are now a contributory participant, I will (unless you desire otherwise) call the company Occam's Razors (either spelling is OK with me), with the flagship model called the TornaDoorman Heuristic Trimmer (you may even have top billing!).

Ignore them.

Pretend they do not exist.

First off, I don't agree that Nigerian scammers pose "difficult situations".

Ignore them and they go away.
