Re: [Avid-L2] life as an editor

I disagree.

We were at the circus when the elephants arrived, with someone saying "this will be an easy show".
Only to discover later that they had put an Indian elephant in with the African elephants.
Understanding how the two types get along was crucial in our ability to get them to act well together.
We put the fancy costumes on them.

We put the elephants in order for them to walk into the big tent.
Then we hand them off to the ring Master, who gets to wear the fancy outfit.
He walks into the big tent with all of the applause.
We go to the dining hall and eat dinner with the clowns.
