Was talking to someone the other day about theatre.
"I think of hosting mapping parties to be similar to doing a theatre production," I said. But - rather thoughtlessly - I added, "Organizing mapping parties is easier. It doesn't matter if one or two members of your team don't turn up. In theatre, a single unavailable actor can jeopardize the whole show."
On second thoughts, that's not true at all. Organizing mapping parties is identical to doing theatre. I've been in parties where everyone was new and I was the only mentor, and I've been in parties where I had plenty of mentors to rely on. I get run ragged in the former - it's a bit like doing a solo act, you never have a moment's rest.
