Douglas Adams once wrote a short essay, pointing out that "Y" was the only letter of the alphabet that posed a question while indicating that "Why" questions are the hardest to answer (and they're easiest to answer with "Why not?"). It was a funny essay, and not long at all. I've considered it for a monologue, in fact. At the end, though, he says something along the lines of: "Y doesn't have to be the final word. It isn't even the final letter. How would it be if it wasn't W X Y Z but W X why not?"

Sorry that that doesn't have much to do with change, though.
