I'm not afraid of rough-and-tumble. I suppose the reason I hesitate is because I've got the impression that most people who are involved are doing so for the fun of it, for showing off and for getting a rush. And yes, to improve their skills too, no doubt.
But I imagine that not many of them are doing it because they have - at one time or another - been made to feel very, very afraid, and to feel small and helpless.
Not that I have. Certainly not recently, anyway. But the, ah "gathering" might not be a benefit to people who have, if it's as focused on spectacle and sport as I've been led to believe.
Anyway - I'm glad that you'll be helping us, Lines. I'm sure we'll all benefit! And Padma's sure to be at all the meetings too, you know.
