I was reviewing some television programming I have on tape, and came across an interview with the extraordinary dancer, choreographer and company director, Paul Taylor. In this interview with Jeffrey Brown on "The News Hour with Jim Lehrer" he said: "Sometimes I think a company's morale is more important than the choreography."
He was speaking about his own company of dancers; I think this should give us pause when we are considering our own community of editors.
"Except for the point, the still point, There would be no dance, and there is only the dance."
The 'point' is still the encyclopedia.
Charles,
Eliot aside; without the dancers there is no dance.
And, without the community, there is no encyclopedia.
